The absolute rudest people are employed here. Had a full load of items from a shed we were cleaning out. Backed up the lady said we're full can't dump. I asked her when would it be empty. She ignored me walked inside. Then I asked the guy standing at his truck. He ignored me. I continued to ask him three times before he acknowledged that I was asking a question. To which his response was "I don't know". I asked can you find out his response was "No". Wow!! This facility obviously needs some oversight and definitely a workshop on how to communicate with people

First trip recently as a new resident in the area and being unfamiliar with the layout and what is accepted, I asked for assistance. I was totally floored by how nice and how helpful the attendants were, not only with information, but offering to help with my items. A broad variety of items are accepted, the layout is easy to maneuver and the property is clean. Will definitely continue to use this location.

I haven’t had a bad experience here yet, since we moved to the area this place has been a lifesaver for disposing of moving boxes, furniture boxes, etc. This is for Wake county residents only and is “free” as in no direct cost at the time of disposal, it’s paid for by taxes. They have really flexible hours; it is usually fairly busy on the weekends but we’ve rarely had to wait. You can recycle electronics here on Saturday and Sunday. For regular recycling (paper, plastic bottles, glass), you do not need to separate, but you do have to empty it all from whatever bag or box you carrying them in. Corrugated cardboard goes into a machine to be baled (if there are air pockets between the layers, that’s corrugated), other lighter cardboard (like cereal boxes) goes in with the rest of the mixed recycling. Other interesting things you can bring here for recycling/disposal: -Oyster shells -Clothes and shoes -Compostable food waste -Scrap metal -Construction waste (presumably DIY stuff you do at home, contractor waste is prohibited) Things you *cannot* recycle/dispose of here: -Yard waste (available at other disposal centers, just not here) -Hazardous waste, oil/sludge/, lead-acid batteries -Medical waste -Concrete -Asbestos-containing materials If you drive a commercial type vehicle, such as a heavy duty truck or van, I could see where they might turn you away. There’s a whole lot of construction contractors who would gladly take advantage of free waste disposal.
