Disposal and permits in Powhatan
Where does the waste from Powhatan go?
Loads from Powhatan go to the nearest licensed transfer station or landfill in Powhatan County, and dump fees are charged by the ton. That is why the weight allowance matters more than the container size.
Do I need a permit for a dumpster in Powhatan?
On your own driveway you need nothing. In the public right-of-way, Powhatan requires a permit, usually a few days out. Most haulers will pull it for you if you ask.
What can't go in a dumpster?
No tires, batteries, paint, fuel, or appliances containing freon. Mattresses and box springs are accepted at most yards for a per-item fee. Concrete and dirt need their own dedicated container.
