Convenience centers

Anything else is $10 for less than a cubic yard, no higher than the truck bed, or $20 a cubic yard from 1 to 8 cubic yards. No trailers over 12 feet, and no cargo vans or trailers at Anderson Lane.
- The centers take cash (except at Omohundro), checks, and credit or debit cards. Cards carry a 2.8% fee of at least $1.95.
- The centers don’t take brush or leaves, ammunition, asbestos, brick, concrete, dirt, rock, roofing shingles, siding, car parts other than tires, gas tanks, fireworks, flares, medical waste, pallets, or railroad ties, among other things.
