Construction Debris: What You Can (and Can't) Take to the Dump
Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.
Read more →Lamb Canyon Landfill is the big burial site out past Beaumont on Lamb Canyon Road, used by homeowners, haulers and businesses hauling trash that can't be recycled or composted. It’s a typical regional landfill where materials are buried rather than processed further. People use it when carts, construction debris or large loads need somewhere to go that accepts final-disposal material.
Expect a gated entrance with a weigh scale and an attendant booth where vehicles stop to be weighed - tipping fees at landfills are usually charged by weight, so there’s often a stop both arriving and leaving. Trucks and trailers pull up to a working face or drop-off area; the site is large, mostly dirt and compacted cover with active tipping zones and big slopes of compacted material. Lines can form on weekends and during seasonal cleanup times, and commercial trucks will often be moving around while smaller vehicles wait their turn.
