Solid Waste Facility

Raleigh County Solid Waste Authority

200 Fernandez Dr, Beckley, WV 25801

(304) 255-9335

A county solid waste site in Beckley where locals drop off household trash, yard clippings, and recyclables. Folks from nearby hollows and the city use it for weekend cleanups and routine loads, especially when hauling from out of town.

Drive up to an entrance booth and prepare for a short stop to check in and direct you where to go; sites like this commonly have a scale, so expect to be weighed on the way in or out. The area is open and industrial-looking with piles, containers, and a few transfer areas; bring something to cover loose debris in the truck bed. Recycling and yard waste sections are usually separated from the main trash area, and lines build up on Saturdays and during spring yard cleanup. Weather can make the access road slick or slow, so plan extra time in winter or after heavy rain.

Before You Go

  • Secure and tarp loads before leaving home so leaves, dirt, or loose trash doesn’t blow out on the road or get blown around at the site.
  • Go earlier in the day on weekends if possible; late mornings fill up fast and there’s often a line to get past the booth.
  • Have a plan for sorting at the truck-separate recyclable-looking items and yard waste from general trash to make the drop-off quicker.
