Convenience Centers Open at Various Locations in Scott County
Published by the Scott County Virginia Star on Wednesday, July 1, 2009.
For county residents wanting to find the closest solid waste convenience site, the county's E-911 staff compiled the following list. Each site is open 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Saturday.
The centers offer citizens local dump sites that accept large items such as mattresses, as well as scrap metal. In order to receive these services, vehicle must have a county sticker.
Even though supervisors voted to remove county stickers effective in 2010, workers at sites will have to find a way to identify county residents' cars.
The board has voted to discuss ways to solve this problem including adding a smaller decal on car windshields. At this time they have made no definitive plans.
Convenience centers are operated by an attendant and are available only Monday through Saturday, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
