Driveway-safe roll-off dumpsters for garage purges, remodels and whole-home cleanouts across Chesapeake.
Learn moreFentress, Virginia · City of Chesapeake
Fentress is a small, unincorporated rural community in far southern Chesapeake, best known as home to Naval Auxiliary Landing Field (NALF) Fentress, where naval aviators run touch-and-go training. Outside the airfield itself, the area is sparsely developed farmland and woods along Ballahack Rd and Fentress Airfield Rd, close to the Great Dismal Swamp. It's about as quiet and rural as Chesapeake gets, and it's a longer haul from the yard -- roughly thirty minutes south through Grassfield.

Properties here sit on real acreage, with farmhouses and scattered newer homes on long gravel or dirt driveways rather than anything resembling a suburban lot. Septic and well service the area rather than city utilities. The ground is low-lying and close to wetland terrain given the proximity to the Dismal Swamp, and traffic is about as light as it gets in the city, aside from activity around the naval airfield itself.
Rural and farm-property cleanouts make up a good share of our Fentress work, along with residential remodels on the area's older homes. Storm and hurricane debris hits harder here given how exposed the open, low-lying terrain is, and we do occasional land-clearing work on properties near the wetland edge, staying careful of the boundary line where a project calls for it.

South on Battlefield Blvd through Grassfield, then Ballahack Rd or Blackwater Rd into Fentress, about thirty minutes from the yard.

Generally yes, as long as the ground is firm and there's room to turn around at the end. We'll ask about the length and surface of the drive when you call, and if it's soft after recent rain we can lay planking under the wheels or set the container closer to the road instead.
Not typically for a standard residential or farm job -- we just plan around normal road traffic in the area like anywhere else. If your property is directly adjacent to the airfield and has any specific access considerations, let us know when you book.
A day or two of notice gets you a more reliable delivery window, since Fentress is one of our longer regular runs and we like to build it into a planned trip when we can. We'll still take same-day calls when the schedule allows.
If a property backs directly onto wetland ground, we keep the container and any land-clearing debris on the buildable side of that boundary. If your project already has wetland permitting attached, we'll follow whatever line that sets.
