About This Location

The Shanklin Convenience Center at 80 Shanklin Road in Beaufort is one of Beaufort County's drop-off sites for recycling and household solid waste, operated by the county's Solid Waste & Recycling program. It is open seven days a week except Wednesday and county holidays, and it is one of four county centers that also take small quantities of residential construction and demolition debris. Residents drop off commingled recyclables — aluminum and steel cans, cardboard and pasteboard, mixed paper, #1 and #2 plastic bottles and jugs, glass, and cooking oil — along with lead-acid and rechargeable batteries; oyster shells are collected here for the county's reef-restoration program. A county decal is required to dispose of household trash, and the centers serve Beaufort County residents.
