Frequently asked question
I am a new resident of chesterfield and I need to throw some things away. I was told that my ID needs to show a Chesterfield Va address before I can use the landfill. My question is, can I use a piece of mail as proof of residency?
Yes - a utility bill or similar item showing a Chesterfield VA address residency is sufficient proof to use the landfill if your license has yet to be changed.
