Small county refuse site off Airport Road that locals use for regular household drop-offs and cleanouts. Mostly serves Quinton and surrounding New Kent County residents, so expect a down-to-earth, no-frills setup. Vehicles range from pickups to small trailers on busy days.
Drive up the driveway from 7050 Airport Road and you’ll see a control/arrival point where attendees check in before proceeding. There’s a clearly marked traffic flow for entering and exiting, with places to pull over if someone in the vehicle needs to sort materials. Piles and containers are visible from the lane, and the site has the typical compacted-dirt-and-gravel feel rather than a paved, retail-style facility. Lines form on weekends and during seasonal cleanups, so plan for a short wait if it’s busy.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring a tarp or straps to cover loose loads; wind can send light debris around and it’s easier to handle at drop-off.
- Have the load organized before pulling up to the check-in point so the stop at the entrance is quick and other drivers aren’t held up.
- Go during weekday mornings or midweek afternoons if possible - those times usually move faster than weekend slots.
