Latest Information from the
Town of Kill Devil Hills

The Town’s Dry Trash Drop Off and Recycle Center will reopen on Monday, May 4, 2020.

Please note the temporary change in hours of operation: 8:00 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. Monday - Friday and 8:00 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. Saturday. The Center is closing earlier than usual each day to allow Staff time for additional sanitizing efforts.

When visiting the Center, the following actions shall be practiced:

• Dry Trash Drop Off
The Dry Trash Drop Off is limiting vehicle numbers. There shall be no more than one vehicle at the limb area. Combined, there shall be no more than one vehicle at the C&D, metal and mattress containers, to maintain the social distancing requirements. Customers shall wait in their vehicles (windows up) to allow the previous customer to finish unloading and then follow the directions of the attendant. 
 
• Recycle Center (self-serve)
Customers under the shelter are required to wear a cloth face covering. This is in accordance with Dare County’s Order: “individuals are now required to wear a mask or cloth face covering in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain.”  
 
• Mulch Pile
The open-air mulch area provides social distancing separation from the recycle center and is limited to one customer at a time (cloth face covering not mandatory). Please be patient and wait until no customers are in this area before leaving your vehicle.
 
We appreciate your added patience and assistance in following these guidelines to allow the center to reopen safely.
