Transylvania County convenience centers and dump hours
Convenience centers are what most people call the dump. This page covers three convenience centers, the Woodruff Landfill, and the Household Hazardous Waste Collection Center. Each one’s hours are posted below, with the rules that apply.
Convenience centers
- Transylvania County charges for trash by the bag: each bag of household trash at a collection center needs a $3 green sticker (or two old orange ones), and bags can weigh up to 30 pounds and hold up to 33 gallons. Sorted recycling is free. The centers take cash or checks only; stickers are sold at the landfill, which also takes credit cards. Loose trash and commercial loads go to the landfill.
