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.

Yard debris removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Goldsboro.

How much is bagged yard debris pickup?

One contractor bag is $69; each additional bag is $20. Select your bag count to see the total. Every bag must be carryable, weigh 50 lb or less, and contain no dirt or gravel.

Can you pick up a loose pile of branches or yard waste?

Contact our team for a custom quote. Text a photo of the whole pile, its approximate dimensions, your ZIP code and a view of the pickup access. We confirm the scope, price and scheduling before you book.

Can I book regular paper yard bags?

The online item for this service is a standard contractor bag. If your yard debris is in another kind of bag, send a photo so our team can confirm the right booking.

Can I arrange same-day pickup?

Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Checkout shows the available dates for your address. Your booking is for a pickup day, rather than an exact arrival window. We send updates and photos after collection.

Where should I put my items?

Use an accessible outdoor spot you are allowed to use, and follow the instructions in your confirmation. Keep sidewalks, entrances and vehicle access clear. You arrange any indoor carrying. For a loading dock or a short building access window, confirm the setup with our team before booking.

How does leaf and limb pickup work in Goldsboro?

It is a residential service for single family residences, which the 2025 city ordinance update clarified, and it excludes commercial housing, apartment complexes and town house communities. Each collection is limited to four cubic yards, and a limb may be no larger than three inches in diameter and four feet in length.Official guidance

Does the Goldsboro leaf and limb service cover apartments and town houses?

No. The city states that residential means single family residences rather than commercial housing, apartment complexes or town house communities, and the four cubic yard limit with the three inch by four foot limb limit applies to the households the service does cover. A larger property has to arrange its own hauling.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

What will the city not collect in Goldsboro?

Construction and demolition material, tires and anything heavier than the weekly carts. Construction debris may be disposed of at the Wayne County Landfill only and carries a tipping fee, tires may be disposed of there only, and the county takes only waste generated in Wayne County. The city's own routes are the weekly refuse, the every other week recycling, the Wednesday bulk item pickup for furniture and appliances and the leaf and limb collection for single family homes.Official guidance

Who handles garbage and disposal in Goldsboro?

The City of Goldsboro Public Works Solid Waste Division collects refuse weekly, recycling every other week, leaves and limbs from single family homes, and the free Wednesday bulk item pickup, and the division is at 1601 Clingman Street on 919-734-8674 with the city contact line at 919-580-4362. Wayne County runs the landfill and convenience centers, including the tire and construction debris drop-off at 460 B S Landfill Road in Dudley, with its Solid Waste Department on 919-689-2994.Official guidance
