California Street Landfill at 2151 Nevada Street in Redlands is where loads that can't be handled elsewhere end up buried. Residents and commercial haulers both use it for big or mixed loads.
Pull up to a small entrance booth and be ready for the scales; landfills charge by weight, so expect a weigh-in and a weigh-out. After that, follow traffic to the active tipping area - semi-trucks and heavy equipment move dirt and compact loads, and the place looks more like a worksite than a drop-off center. Dust, diesel and the occasional smell are normal, and lines form on weekends and during spring cleanup. Because California requires organics diversion in many cases, separate food and yard material beforehand if possible.
