Ozark Ridge (Yell County) Landfill

Ozark Ridge (Yell County) Landfill is the county landfill out past Danville where household trash and larger loads end up buried. Locals and hauling trucks use it - think of it as the final stop for things that can’t go to a convenience center. Arkansas facilities are regulated by ADEQ, so this is a standard county landfill setup rather than a transfer station.

Drive in on a gravel access lane to a small entrance booth or scale area; there’s usually a weigh-in and weigh-out process, so plan for a brief stop at the scale. Pull up to the booth to check in, then follow the dirt road out to the active dumping cell or tipping area where trucks back up and unload. The site looks like compacted soil and berms with heavy equipment around - not flashy, just practical; expect to drive on uneven surfaces and watch for bulldozers or loaders moving material.
