Henry County convenience centers and dump hours

Salem District, on Eastern time

Convenience centers are what most people call the dump. This page covers seven convenience centers and the First Piedmont Transfer Station. The First Piedmont Transfer Station is run by First Piedmont, not the county. Each one’s hours are posted below, with the rules that apply.

Convenience centers

  • Henry County’s convenience centers are for county residents only, no businesses. Your vehicle needs a free county sticker, which the site monitors issue after checking your registration; the county’s FAQ says decals go to residents who are current on county taxes.
  • Household trash goes in plastic bags in the small green boxes, furniture in the roll-off containers, and white goods on the marked pads. No yard waste, construction materials or shingles, car parts, tanks, or gas containers; take anything the centers don’t accept to the First Piedmont Transfer Station.
  • The sites are gated when they’re closed. Don’t leave trash at the gate: dumping after hours can bring criminal charges.
