How it works
York County runs 16 staffed Collection & Recycling Centers for county residents (closed Wednesday and Sunday). The county page lists street addresses without ZIP codes, including Fort Mill East (2085 Fort Mill Parkway), Baxter (1731 Highway 160), Mt. Gallant (3986 Mt. Gallant Road), Porter Road (2050 Porter Road) and Lesslie (3211 Pantry Drive). The U.S. Census geocoder places Fort Mill East and Porter Road in unincorporated York County, Baxter in Baxter Village CDP, Mt. Gallant in India Hook CDP and Lesslie in Lesslie CDP, so none is inside Rock Hill or Fort Mill town limits.
