Stones Throw Landfill, LLC

Stones Throw Landfill is the place in Tallassee where trash gets buried rather than recycled or transferred. Locals and commercial haulers come here when a load needs final disposal, so expect the feel of an active landfill on Washington Boulevard. Like most landfills, it operates with a tipping-fee structure-typically by weight or per load-rather than free drop-offs.

Expect an entrance booth and a scale or a weigh-in process; drivers usually pull up to be checked before being sent to the dump pad. The tipping area is a large, cleared pad with heavy equipment working nearby and compacted mounds of cover and trash visible in the distance. Vehicles dump, then often return to the scale if fees are weight-based, so allow a little time for in-and-out traffic. The site can be dusty when dry and sloppy after rain, and there are big trucks moving, so drive cautiously and follow any posted directions.
