What to do with tires, mattresses, paint, and more
Before you go
- Commercial and construction waste goes to the county’s Northern Landfill (757-824-5737) or South Transfer Station (757-787-2814): $85 a ton from July 1, 2026, paid at delivery. Tires there are $4 for cars and small trucks, $7 for trucks, $2 more on the rim, and 4 car tires a day are free for non-commercial use.
Convenience centers
- The convenience centers take limited amounts of household waste generated in Accomack County, and recycling from Accomack or Northampton County. Businesses and industry must use the county landfills.
- The centers don’t take Styrofoam, cooking oil, antifreeze, pesticide containers, window glass, light bulbs, large amounts of construction debris, dead animals, liquids, propane tanks, or ashes.
- Reusable items in good condition can go to a center’s Put and Take area with the attendant’s OK, and anyone can take from it while the center is open. No electronics or upholstered furniture.
