Roanoke Solid Waste Management

A county-level solid waste drop-off on Courtland Road used by Roanoke residents hauling household trash, yard debris and recyclables. It’s the sort of place neighbors swing by with trailers, truck beds and car loads rather than a commercial compactor truck. Expect a working, no-frills site where people are moving materials in and out most days.

Drive up the short access road to an entrance booth and a vehicle queue; lanes split for different types of drop-off so pay attention to signs as traffic moves. There’s a scale and concrete tipping areas with large containers and roll-offs visible from the driveway, so engines will be running and loaders may be moving materials. Recycling and yard-waste piles or bins are typically grouped together and set a bit off to one side, while general trash goes to the main tipping area. Weekends, especially during seasonal cleanups, tend to be busier and lines can form back onto the road.
