(757) 242-3597A small-town recycling center just off Stave Mill Road in Windsor, used by local residents and small businesses hauling household recyclables and yard-clearout loads. This is the kind of place people swing by on weekends or after a big cleanout, not a high-volume metropolitan operation.
Drive up the long driveway to a single entrance with an attendant booth near the gate; most vehicles will pull up, check in, and then be directed where to drop materials. The recycling containers and sorting bays sit to the right past the booth, with larger roll-off areas and open tipping floors beyond them. Expect a mix of cars, pickups, and small trailers - trailers sometimes need to be unloaded at the edge of the paved area. Many rural recycling centers accept cardboard, mixed paper, plastics, glass, and metals, and may run periodic programs for electronics or appliances; confirm specifics before hauling unusual items.
