Construction Debris: What You Can (and Can't) Take to the Dump
Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.

A drive-in scale is likely near the entrance and vehicles are weighed for tipping fees, so plan for a brief stop to get measured before and after dumping. The site itself looks industrial - open berms, compacted cells and dirt access roads rather than a neat transfer-station setup. Pull up to the drop-off area and follow attendants’ directions for where to empty; larger commercial rigs will usually have a different routing than small trailers or pickups. Weekends and spring cleanup days commonly have lines, so there can be a wait before getting to the pit and back onto the scale.
