Who uses them and what to bring
The county says residents without curbside garbage pickup can bring their garbage to the centers. It also says many household items, such as mattresses, carpet and furniture, can be dropped off at the eight staffed centers, though your trash provider may pick them up curbside too. Bring ID with your Charleston County address in case staff ask, and see bringing proof of residency. For a first visit, read a first trip to a convenience center.

Hauling it yourself? If the load won’t fit in the truck bed, a 6×10 ft open-rail utility trailer or a 4×8 ft folding trailer (it folds upright to store in a garage) can cost less than a couple of hauler trips. Tie everything down with ratchet tie-down straps; many sites charge extra for loose or uncovered loads.
