Beginning in December 2022, the Horry County Solid Waste Authority initiated a pilot Food Waste Collection program at the Landfill Recycling Convenience Center located at 1886 Highway 90, Conway, SC. The purpose of the pilot program is to divert food scraps from landfill disposal to the composting facility and to determine the receptiveness and feasibility of offering food scrap collection to residents through the County's 25 Recycling Convenience Centers.
