Ooh, your drop off center sounds a bit like our dump/tip/HWRC! We have sort of found an American equivalent I think. Although charging for entry sounds grim- I'm sure I declared the phrase "this is the most boring thing I've ever paid for" recently about something or other, but paying to go to the dump would definitely win!!
