Municipal disposal site at 2805 AL Highway 69 South in Cullman, used by local residents and small haulers for everyday trash and cleanups. Expect a no-frills county facility - not a private transfer station - where neighborhood pickup truck loads are common.
Drive up to an entrance lane with an attendant booth or weigh station typical of these centers; plan on stopping briefly to check in and possibly get weighed. The site is large and open with piles, roll-off boxes or compactors visible from the drive; there’s room to pull up and unload at marked drop areas. Weekends and spring cleanup times see the longest lines, so traffic and waiting are the main nuisance. Recycling or drop-off containers are usually grouped to one side, so watching for signage and other vehicles helps when navigating the yard.
