Three Corners Regional Landfill is the large municipal landfill serving the Piedmont area; residents and haulers bring household and commercial loads here to be buried. Located off Co Rd 6, it handles the final disposal of waste under Alabama Environmental Management oversight, and is used by both local folks and commercial haulers.
Expect a working landfill atmosphere with visible cell areas, cover soil, and heavy equipment moving around; there’s usually a weigh scale and a weigh/entrance booth where vehicles stop before and after dumping. Drive slowly onto a paved approach, pull up to the booth if present, then follow signs or staff direction toward the active tipping face or unloading pad. Tipping fees are charged by weight or load size at most landfills, and commercial trucks are typically accepted, so larger rigs are common on-site.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loads with a tarp or straps; loose items can blow off while driving in and out.
- Allow extra time on weekends and during spring cleanup - lines and wait time tend to build up.
- Use a truck or trailer with a clear path to the dumping area; tight turns and active equipment can make maneuvering slower than expected.
