About OCSWA
The Ohio County Solid Waste Authority was founded in 1989 by the West Virginia Legislature. Our center offers recycling services at 176 Satterfield Dr location on Tuesdays 7:00a to 3:00p, Thursdays 11:00a to 7:00p, and Saturdays 8:00a to 12:00p. We also offer several other events, like tire collections, household hazardous waste collection, litter walks, and community events. Click below for more information!
WE'RE UNDER CONSTRUCTION!
‼️ ATTENTION RECYCLERS ‼️
The Highlands Recycling Center is undergoing a major facelift! For the next few weeks, recycling will be different than normal. We need YOUR help to ensure our center can stay open during the construction!
Lehman’s Landscaping and Concrete of Powhatan Point, Oh., are laying concrete where our bins normally sit. After that, Cast & Baker of Cannonsburg, Pa., will lay down asphalt!
Because of this work, recyclers will be directed to a temporary site behind our fenced in location.
⚠️SLOW DOWN⚠️
Look for our employee to guide you through the process. Stay in your vehicle. We will unload it! When you're done, please exit to the right.
Our containers may be outside, but they are locked and under 24/7 video surveillance. You may only come during our regularly scheduled business hours. Dumping your recycling after-hours is a crime punishable with a $50,000 fine, and/or by posting your pictures to our page to shame you!
We appreciate your patience and understanding! We hope to keep the center open throughout this process, but if there are issues we may be forced to temporarily close. Help us maintain our regular hours!
