Recycling in Florence: A Local Guide
Florence, South Carolina gives residents a choice of two free county-run drop-off sites and one commercial scrap metal buyer. Florence County Land & Waste Management operates 15 staffed recycling sites across the county; two of them are within the city of Florence itself. The Florence County Recycling Center at 2325 Carnell Dr accepts aluminum, appliances, cardboard, mixed paper, plastics #1 and #2, scrap metal, steel cans, tires, and used motor oil — all at no charge, Monday through Saturday, 7 AM to 7 PM.
The second county site, the Florence County Recycling Center at 359 S Ebenezer Rd (Site 12), serves the south side of the city with the same Mon–Sat 7–7 schedule. What sets this location apart is that it is one of only four Florence County sites accepting household electronics — TVs, desktop computers, laptops, monitors, and printers — plus used oil and gasoline mixtures. If you have e-waste in Florence, this is the place to bring it.
For residents with ferrous or non-ferrous metal to sell, American Steel & Recycling Center at 1401 Pecan St buys scrap metal and junk vehicles Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM. This is a commercial scrap buyer — you receive payment by weight — not a free public recycling service. Commercial accounts and auto salvage are its primary customers.
Florence County's Recycling Coordinator can be reached at (843) 292-1603 for questions about which of the county's 15 sites accepts a specific material or about upcoming HHW events. Nearby cities with recycling resources include Sumter, Darlington, Conway, and Columbia. View all South Carolina recycling centers.
