Construction Debris: What You Can (and Can't) Take to the Dump
Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.
Read more →Lauderdale Co. Landfill is the county landfill out on Cloverdale Road that locals and businesses use to bury municipal trash. Neighbors with truckloads, contractors, and small haulers all end up here when they need the trash taken off the property. It's the final stop where material gets buried rather than recycled or dropped at a convenience center.
Drive past an entrance booth and you'll cross a scale - tipping fees are charged by weight, so expect to stop on both the in and out scales. The site is large, with visible working faces and compacted berms; commercial trucks share the same lanes as pickup trucks. Drop-off points and the working landfill cells are obvious from the haul road; staff will direct traffic if it's busy. Weekends, especially during spring cleanup, can back up, so plan for a short wait if arriving then.
