A county landfill on US‑78 that local homeowners and small haulers use when household trash or cleared brush needs to go somewhere. People from Jasper and nearby parts of Walker County drop off loads here; it’s the sort of place farmers, folks doing a home cleanout, and pickup‑truck haulers know about.
Drive in off US‑78 and look for the main entrance and a small booth or gate area where traffic is checked before being sent farther inside. There’s usually a scale and a spot where vehicles pause to be weighed, so plan for a short slow‑down even if traffic is light. The site itself is mostly open cells or piles with ramps and lanes to back up to for unloading, and recycling or metal collection points are often set off to the side. Weekends and spring cleanup times tend to be busier, so expect a line at peak times.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring something to secure loose loads-tarp and tie‑downs-so debris doesn’t blow off on the drive in or while waiting in line.
- Back the truck or trailer as straight as possible when unloading; the tipping areas can be tight and uneven underfoot.
- Plan to go early on weekend mornings to avoid the longest lines, especially during yard‑cleanup season.
