Cave Creek Landfill

Cave Creek Landfill is the local burial site for trash from Cave Creek and nearby areas; residents and small haulers bring loads here rather than a transfer station. It’s the place where materials are buried rather than processed, and both household and commercial deliveries are handled here.

Drive up to an entrance booth and then over a scale so weight-based tipping fees can be assessed, so plan for a stop in and a stop out. Traffic lanes and compacted dirt or gravel pads are common, with working areas of exposed soil and piled refuse visible from the unloading area. Commercial trucks are accepted and usually routed separately from smaller pickup or trailer traffic, with signage and attendants directing larger vehicles. Expect dust and desert conditions-shade is minimal and the site looks like a working landfill rather than a tidy drop-off center.
