Landfill
Fink Road Landfill
Fink Road Landfill, 4000 Fink Road, Crows Landing, 95313, California
Fink Road Landfill on Fink Road in Crows Landing is the local spot where residential and commercial loads get buried. Trucks, contractors and neighbors show up when trash needs to go to a final disposal site. It’s exactly what it sounds like - a working landfill, not a recycling center.
Drive up to a weigh scale and an entrance booth area - tipping fees are assessed by weight, so expect at least one stop to be weighed and ticketed. The site is industrial: heavy equipment, compacted piles of material and lots of trucks coming and going. Pull up to the scale/booth area and then move on to the unloading spot; lines can build up on weekends and during spring cleanup season.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Separate organics from regular trash - California requires organics diversion in many places, so have green/food waste set aside before getting in line.
- Expect weight-based tipping fees - be prepared to be weighed and don’t assume a small pickup load will be inexpensive.
- Avoid peak times and prep the load - weekends and spring cleanups get backed up; tarp and secure loads, and have help ready to unload so vehicles move through quicker.
