Where Is the Dump

Plan your drop-off

Dumps & landfills in Virginia

Virginia has no statewide landfill ban on mattresses or household electronics, so most dumping rules come from the county or regional authority that runs the site. Counties typically run unstaffed-fee or staffed convenience centers for residents, with the big landfills reserved for haulers and per-ton customers. Expect proof of residency (decal, ID or tax bill) at most county sites.

State rules to know

Tires

Tires disposed of in a landfill must be cut, split or shredded, so landfills and transfer stations often refuse whole tires or charge extra. Official rule ↗

Tires

It is illegal to store or dump more than 100 waste tires without a permit; small household amounts go to a county site or tire retailer. Official rule ↗

Electronics

There is no statewide ban on putting electronics in the trash, but manufacturers must offer take-back and counties may run e-waste drop-offs; a locality may ban rechargeable batteries from disposal by ordinance. Official rule ↗

Household hazardous waste is excluded from Virginia solid waste regulation, and most counties accept it only on set collection days or at a regional site; check the local page before you go.
