Before you go
- Cover your load before you come: unsecured loads pay twice the usual fees.
Convenience centers
- Union County residents can drop off up to 10 standard 13-gallon bags (or five bigger bags) of household garbage a day free with the Trash Pass: show a vehicle registration, ID, or utility bill, and the attendant gives you a window decal. Bigger loads go to the landfill, which charges by the load.
