Glenn County Landfill Site

Glenn County Landfill Site, 5700 County Road 33, Artois, 95913, California

Glenn County Landfill Site is the county landfill off County Road 33 in Artois, where residents and commercial haulers bring material for final burial. It’s a working, no-frills place - trucks, trailers and piles of compacted material are what define the yard.

Pull up to a small entrance booth and be prepared to stop; there’s a scale for weighing loads so vehicles usually get weighed as they come and often again on the way out. The ground is mostly gravel and dirt with access roads that can get dusty; signage and cones direct traffic to the active tipping area. Tipping fees are charged by weight at this sort of facility, and there’s typically a minimum for small residential loads; commercial loads are common and handled here. Expect the site to look industrial - open cells, heavy equipment, and areas where trucks line up before dumping.

Before You Go

  • Secure and tarp loose loads before leaving home so nothing blows out on the road and so unloading goes faster once on site.
  • Separate organics from regular trash as much as possible - California rules make organics separation common, and having things sorted speeds the visit.
  • Avoid peak weekend cleanup times if possible; also allow time for the scale stops and for larger trucks to maneuver when lining up to dump.
