Lincoln County Solid Waste Convenience Site - Optimist NC 28037

I built an addition on my house this summer and spent every weekend dropping off construction types of debris. I’m grateful that my taxes are going towards this site because it is convenient to be able to go drop off stuff every day of the week and the hours are pretty good for most people. My recommendations are make larger signs showing which trash goes where and post one HUGE as soon as you enter the driveway and post at least two more huge signs around the loop. The current signs have font that’s too small to read when you're first driving in, and if one large truck is in front of you blocking the view then it causes a traffic jam as we all wait our turn to read the sign. Add signs pointing in the direction of traffic flow. People get confused and go the wrong way when moving between the dumpsters. The signs at each dumpster are hidden when vehicles park in front of them. It seems like the process could be much easier if better signage were posted. You could include a color map layout of the types of waste and their location on the website to also help prepare people when they arrive. Overall it is a well maintained site. The men working are not rude, they are just doing their job. However a little kindness goes a long way.

Very disappointed that the site was not opened its scheduled hours until 6pm on Saturday. This especially the case after we have a hurricane and we need to be able to dispose of ruined food due power outage over 36 hrs. Arrived at the Optimistic club site along with 10 others cars that had to turn around and immediately leave as we found the site closed at 4:30pm 1 1/2 hours before the posted close times.
