Before you go
- Bowling Green, Port Royal, and Ladysmith have reuse areas for furniture, working electronics, toys, lawn equipment, and tools that are too good to throw away; residents may take items once a day.
Convenience centers
- Caroline County’s convenience sites are for county residents only, and dumping waste from outside the county is illegal. Each visit is limited to a low-sided pickup load (about a 55-gallon can from a commercial vehicle); bigger loads go to the Bowling Green site.
- No site takes hazardous or medical waste, gasoline or solvents, stumps, propane or other pressurized tanks, asbestos, animal carcasses, hot ashes, free liquids, or creosote-treated lumber.
