(540) 942-6765Waynesboro Recycling Public Convenience Center is the city recycling drop-off in Waynesboro that neighbors use when curbside won’t handle the excess. People bring cardboard, paper, glass, metals and common plastics; many recycling centers in the region also run occasional electronics or bulky-item drop-off programs. It’s a no-frills, practical spot for shuffling recyclables out of the house.
There’s typically a small entrance lane with a booth where vehicles pause briefly before entering the yard, and the site opens into outdoor containers and covered bays. Pull up to the bin you need - cardboard, paper, glass and cans are usually separated into big dumpsters or bays so unloading is mostly self-serve. Many centers have a scale somewhere on site so heavier loads can be weighed before leaving, so expect to stop again if lines form near the exit. Weekends and spring-cleanup times are when lines get longest, so timing matters.
