Morrilton Sanitary Landfill is the city’s final burial site for municipal and larger loads; local residents and commercial haulers both use it. The site sits off Dump Rd and functions like a typical county landfill rather than a drop-off convenience center.
Drive up to a scale and a small entrance booth where vehicles are weighed and charged by weight; expect to stop on the way in and again when leaving. The tipping area is out in the open with compacted cells and dirt roads, so trucks and trailers back up to specific dumping spots. Tipping fees are assessed by weight, and commercial loads are accepted, so bring paperwork for commercial deliveries if required by the hauler. Depending on the season the site can get dusty or muddy and lines form at busy times like spring cleanup.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure tarps and loose debris before arriving so loads don’t spill when backing into the tipping area.
- Approach the scale slowly and have anyone who needs to exit the vehicle ready to do so quickly to keep traffic moving.
- Wear sturdy shoes and expect uneven, muddy ground; keep an eye out for heavy equipment when moving around the site.
