Dumpsters will be available from 7 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the West Meighan Sports Complex (1420 W Meighan Blvd), East Gadsden Community Center (921 Wilson Ave) and the parking lot across from The Amp (346 S 1st St).

Items not accepted: liquids, household garbage, tires, batteries (car, cell phone, etc.), glass, paint cans and electronics/old TVs.

You can also go directly to the landfill at 111 Burns Way Drive, which will be open from 7 a.m. - noon for free dumping *with a valid Gadsden identification.*

All metal should be taken directly to the landfill.

Got some items you want to recycle instead of throwing away? Gadsden Recycles (306 Henry St) will be open from 7 a.m. - noon. You can drop off cardboard, newspaper, aluminum, and electronics. (No glass or plastic at this time.)

The next Free Dumpster Day will be in early 2026, so keep an eye out for future announcements!
