Solid Waste and Recycling Facilities
As a resident of Northampton County, you have improved, staffed solid waste and recycling facilities for your residential waste. The County has constructed manned solid waste and recycling facilities at several locations where you can easily dispose of your residential garbage.
The advantages don't stop there. Attendants are able to answer your questions and offer help as you dispose of trash. The sites are kept clean and neat which control vermin, blowing debris, and help protect the environment. The sites are secured during off hours to control access and unauthorized waste disposals. Safety is enhanced for the residential user. Northampton County is dedicated to providing residents with a clean, safe environment with its system of staffed solid waste and recycling facilities. Added advantages to this system include:
-
Open Daily
-
Recycling Services
-
Sites with Easy Access to US Route 13
-
Acceptance of Bulk Items
-
Enhanced Security
-
Cleaner, Healthier Sites
-
Environmental Safety
Recycling Facilities
The sites provide recycling facilities that include acceptance of plastic, glass, newspaper and cardboard, and aluminum, steel cans and food & beverage cartons. Waste oil and vehicle batteries are collected.

In addition to the recycling green boxes, Northampton County partners with Special Olympics Virginia and offers clothing collection bins at all of our Waste Collection Centers. Please consider donating your gently used shoes and clothing at these specially marked bins.
