What clients say about Recovery Operations Center in Newport News (VA)

• Jim Kepka

  Recovery operations and the folks that work there are great. What the problem is is waste Management provides the dumpsters for the recovery operations and they often fail to swap out the dumpsters. This is my second time there with no dumpsters to use. This last time took about 3 hours to get one dumpster out of the three that they have replaced. Hating a waste management not recovery operations.

  Great for compost but you have to pick bits of plastic and other stuff out but for the price it's great

  I have visited the landfill 5 times over the past month. A very pleasant experience, everyone is kind and very helpful as I am learning the ropes.

  Top notch with professional employees that tell you specifically where to go with what you have, so you’re not driving around aimlessly guessing where to put your recyclables or your trash.

  It was my first time getting compost and the staff were so helpful. You pull onto the scale and then get out and go to the window with your license & pay. Then the staff loads it up for you. It was $6 cu yard and one yard filled up almost the whole truck bed. Very happy with the whole experience!

  Mulch for 10$ and compost for 12$ Great and easy way to start/fill a garden! Pull up on the platform, get out and pay, pull to loading zone, they drop it in the bed and off you go. They say one yard but it literally fills up our dodge ram bed! You'll have to make more then one trip, going every weekend until spring hits!

  Such a great location. Very convenient place to dispose of cardboard that doesn’t fit in our bin. Sometimes can take a couple minutes to get in and it’s almost always busy.
