Hancock County Solid Waste Authority Recycling Center

Hancock County Solid Waste Authority Recycling Center on Gas Valley Road is where New Cumberland residents bring household recyclables and small residential loads. Locals commonly drop off paper, cardboard, plastics, glass and metal cans here; recycling centers like this often accept those materials and may run occasional special drop-off events.

Look for a yard with large roll-off containers and labeled bins, and be ready to pull in slowly since many county centers have an entrance booth and a scale. Paper and cardboard bins are usually grouped together, with bottles and cans in separate containers a bit further in. Gravel or paved drives are common, and there’s generally enough room to back a pickup or trailer up to a bin. Weekends and spring cleanup time get the longest lines, so traffic through the site can slow down.
