Oconee County convenience centers and dump hours

Northeast Georgia, on Eastern time

Convenience centers are what most people call the dump. This page covers four convenience centers. Each one’s hours are posted below, with the rules that apply.

What to do with tires, mattresses, paint, and more

Before you go

  • Oconee County doesn’t pick up trash or leaves and limbs. In Watkinsville or Bogart, ask city hall about pickup: Watkinsville 706-769-5161, Bogart 770-725-7386.

Convenience centers

  • Oconee County’s four Waste & Recycling Sites are for county residents’ household waste and recycling, with no commercial or business use. Show the attendant your vehicle registration or driver’s license; newcomers can also show a utility bill in the same name.
  • Household garbage goes in the county’s blue Pay-As-You-Throw bags ($2.50 for 33 gallons), sold at every site and at area grocery and convenience stores. Recycling is free. Everything else goes only to the Hwy 441 site: bulky items such as furniture $25 each, and loads too big for a bag in a roll-off at $65 a ton ($20 minimum). The sites take checks, and Hwy 441 also cards; no cash.
