Scrap metal and white goods

Accepted with preparation

Scrap metal goes to the Wayne County Landfill or to one of seven county convenience centers, the county states that no charge is incurred for recycled items, and all metal has to be separated from the rest of the load.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. No charge for a recycled item at the Wayne County Landfill or at a convenience center, because the county landfill states that no charges are incurred for recycled items and that all metal has to be separated from all other waste for recycling.
When & how
Take the metal to the Wayne County Landfill at 460 B S Landfill Road in Dudley from Monday through Saturday between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m., or to a county convenience center open Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Get it ready
Separate the metal from every other material before you arrive, take the doors off a freezer or refrigerator before the appliance goes in, and keep white goods and metal out of the garbage, because the county bans white goods from the landfill and provides a separate area for metals and white goods.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Goldsboro handles the light end of the job: refuse every week and recycling every other week from almost fourteen thousand households, a bulk item pickup at no additional cost every Wednesday that a resident books with the Public Works Department and keeps to six items, and a residential leaf and limb collection for single family homes with a four cubic yard limit and a three inch by four foot limit on limbs. Everything else is a Wayne County haul. The Wayne County Landfill at 460 B S Landfill Road in Dudley is open Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. and closed Sunday, and it is the only place in the county that takes tires and the only place that takes construction debris, which is charged a tipping fee and cannot be mixed with other waste. Metal and white goods cross at no charge when they are separated from all other waste, the doors come off a freezer or refrigerator, and the same scrap metal can go to the Grantham, Mitchell Road, Patetown, Pikeville, Rosewood, Seven Springs and Thirteen convenience centers, open Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., although the centers refuse contractor and commercial waste, box trucks, trailers longer than ten feet and heaping loads. A Wayne County citizen can bring five tires in a trip without the state scrap tire certification form, ten tires or fewer go in at any time while a larger quantity waits for a Tuesday or Thursday, uncertified tires are charged by the pound or by the ton, and the landfill takes only waste generated in Wayne County.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Scrap metal removal, from your photo request to the pickup plan in Goldsboro.

How do I request a scrap metal pickup quote?

Text photos to (844) 879-0892 with your ZIP code, approximate amount and access details. Show the whole pile and a closer view of the material. Our team will confirm the scope, quote and scheduling.

Do you buy scrap metal or pick it up for free?

This is a request for a paid removal quote, not a scrap-buying or free-collection offer. If you want to sell metal, ask a local recycler about its accepted materials and delivery requirements.

How much does scrap metal removal cost?

This service uses a custom quote. Send photos, the approximate amount, your ZIP code and access details. Our team confirms the scope and price before booking; there is no fixed-price catalog item for this pile.

Can you collect it today?

Tell our team your preferred day when you request the quote. Timing depends on the material, amount and access, and is confirmed with your quote. Sending photos does not reserve same-day pickup.

Where does scrap metal go in Goldsboro?

To the Wayne County Landfill or to a county convenience center, with no charge for a recycled item. Metal has to be separated from all other waste before it arrives, there is a dedicated area for metals and white goods, and the doors have to be removed from a freezer or refrigerator. The convenience centers that take metal are Grantham, Mitchell Road, Patetown, Pikeville, Rosewood, Seven Springs and Thirteen.Official guidance

Can I sell scrap metal in Goldsboro instead?

The county lists three private metal recyclers in Goldsboro as another source of disposal: Goldsboro Iron and Metal at 801 North John Street on 919-731-5600, NC Salvage at 2058 US 117 Highway on 919-734-7411 and Kemp Recyclers at 700 South George Street on 919-735-2650. Confirm the current terms with the yard directly, because the county only publishes the contacts.Official guidance

What does disposal cost in Goldsboro?

The city's bulk item pickup and its residential leaf and limb collection are provided at no additional cost, and the city does not publish a residential collection rate, so the monthly amount is confirmed with the Solid Waste Division at 919-734-8674. Hauling to Wayne County is a different matter: construction debris carries a tipping fee, an uncertified tire is charged by the pound or by the ton, and a recycled item such as scrap metal or white goods crosses at no charge because the county states that no charges are incurred for recycled items.Official guidance
