What it takes
It’s the only place in Newton County that takes tires, paint, and electronics.
Each item has its own rules. Check before you go.
Newton County rules
- Each household may bring up to ten 32-gallon bags of trash a week and bulky items that fit in a pickup bed (trailers up to 5 by 6 feet, loaded no more than 2 feet high), including limbs under 6 inches across and 6 feet long. Once a month, one large item such as a mattress, box spring, sofa, or chair. Bigger loads go to the landfill, which doesn’t take the hang tag: $30 for the first 900 pounds, then $66 a ton.
