Walker County Solid Waste Department

Walker County Solid Waste Department in Jasper is the county-run spot where locals drop off household trash, yard debris, and recyclables. Mostly used by residents hauling cleanup loads or garden clippings, the site sits off Hwy 78 E and looks like a working county lot rather than a slick private transfer station.

Drive in off the highway and follow the main driveway toward the fenced lot where roll-off bins and piles of material are visible from the road. There are separate places for different types of material at most county centers, so vehicles will pull up to specific drop-off points and unload directly from the tailgate. The area is utilitarian-gravel or paved surfaces, clear signage marking containers, and equipment like loaders operating during business hours. Expect weekends and spring cleanup times to be the busiest, with traffic lining up at the entrance.
