URGENT UPDATE: Residents of Wilson County should prepare for a significant change in their waste disposal routines this week. The county’s Solid Waste C&D Landfill and all Convenience Centers will temporarily close at noon on Wednesday for essential staff training, as confirmed by county officials.
This closure means that residents looking to dispose of trash must act quickly—plan to visit these facilities in the morning before the shutdown. The landfill and all 12 Convenience Centers will resume normal operations the next day, with the landfill reopening at 8:00 a.m. and the centers welcoming visitors starting at 7:00 a.m. on Thursday.
For those unfamiliar with their nearest center, specific addresses are available, including 6044 Bottoms Dairy Road in Elm City and 2400 NC 42 Hwy East for site 13. These centers play a crucial role in maintaining the cleanliness and environmental health of Wilson County by providing accessible options for residents to manage household trash and recyclable materials.
Residents are urged to share this announcement to help others prepare for the upcoming changes. Stay tuned for further updates as this situation develops.
