Waste & Recycling Resources

First Piedmont Corporation is a proud member of the following associations. Our participation provides us with the opportunity to be well-involved and informed with industry trends and regulations that may affect our local communities and our environment.

Roll-Off Dumpsters

We offer 15, 20, 30, and 40 cubic yard open top dumpsters. Typical uses include construction sites, manufacturing plants, warehouses and other large businesses. These are for permanent and temporary use. On a large business site, a compactor might be more suitable, depending upon the nature of the waste. We offer a full selection of stationary and self-contained mobile compactors.

Non-Hazardous Waste Hauling and Disposal

Special Waste is accepted at our CERCLA certified industrial landfill on a case-by-case basis and approval may be required from the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality. The qualification process may include supporting lab work, MSDS sheets, and a signed Waste Characterization Form.

Shipments of special waste enter our landfill via a manifest and a FPC-Approval Number. We do not accept these types of waste without this prior approval.We can accept various industrial by-products, off-spec materials, sludges, non-friable, and friable asbestos.We provide hauling with roll-off trucks, single box roll-off tractor and trailer and double box roll-off tractor and trailer. We also have 35-foot aluminum dump trailers, tanker trucks, and van trailers.
