Mecklenburg County Landfill

The Mecklenburg County Landfill is responsible for the collection of household waste and recyclable materials from the public green box areas and Convenience Centers located throughout the County. The green box collection areas are designated only for household waste. The Convenience Centers consist of an area with dumpsters/roll-offs to collect items brought to the site by County Residents only. The centers are staffed by an Attendant to help direct you. The dumpsters/roll-offs are designated to collect separately; household waste materials, aluminum cans, newspaper, cardboard, appliances, furniture, metal and brush. There is no liquid allowed at any of the locations.

Mecklenburg County Landfill personnel transport the household waste materials to the Southside Regional Landfill for disposal on a regular basis. The recyclable materials are transported off-site to a recycling facility. The public refuse drop-off areas are for Mecklenburg County residents only.
