Recycling Center

Solid Waste & Recycling Convenience Center

4010 Mine Rd, Fredericksburg, VA 22408

A small county recycling center out on Mine Road in Fredericksburg, used mostly by local households looking to keep reusable stuff out of the landfill. It’s the sort of place people swing by with bags of bottles, stacks of cardboard, or the occasional electronics drop-off. Expect a practical, no-frills setup rather than anything flashy.

The site sits at 4010 Mine Rd and looks like a typical recycling lot - areas with big bins and roll-off containers, and a modest entrance/exit area. Common materials accepted at centers like this include paper and cardboard, glass, plastics and metal cans, plus things like electronics or yard debris handled through special programs or periodic collection events. Pull up slowly and have items separated if possible; traffic can back up on weekends or during spring cleanup. Signage and simple traffic flow will point where to drop different materials, and there’s usually an attendant booth or gate near the entrance at similar facilities.

Before You Go

  • Sort cardboard, paper, and cans into separate piles before arriving - it speeds everything up and reduces the time spent walking between bins.
  • Load everything so loose items are contained; a tarp or rope helps keep small stuff from blowing off while driving home.
  • Try to avoid late-morning weekends if possible; those are the busiest times at local recycling centers and lines can form.
