Radford Solid Waste Drop Center

A local drop center for Radford residents who need to get rid of household trash, recycling, and yard debris. Small-town scale - not a huge regional operation - mostly used by people hauling pickups, trailers, and carloads from around the city.

Pull up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop; there’s a scale and traffic flow that moves vehicles through one at a time. The site looks like a typical transfer yard with piles, concrete pads, and a few roll-off containers or bins off to one side. Recycling containers are usually separate from the main trash area, and signs or arrows point toward the lanes. Weekends and spring cleanup days can get backed up, so expect a line then.
