Waste Management - Feather River Disposal

1166 Industrial Way, Quincy, CA 95971

(530) 283-2004

Small-town disposal site used by Quincy residents and local contractors. The place handles the community's regular trash drop-offs and larger cleanout loads and sits on an industrial stretch off Industrial Way. Expect a working, no-frills facility rather than a polished retail yard.

There’s usually an entrance booth and a scale near the driveway, so be prepared to stop and have the load weighed before and after dumping. Trucks and pickups pull up to assorted tipping areas and large open piles; lanes can be wide but a few big rigs move through, so take it slow. Recycling bins are often grouped to one side past the booth, and piles of green material or bulky items are visible from the driving lanes. Weekends and spring cleanup times get busy, so lines and wait times are common.

Before You Go

  • Cover loads with a tarp for the drive in case of wind and to keep loose debris from flying out while waiting in line.
  • Drive slowly and watch for vehicles reversing or heavy equipment; park close to the booth when stopping to check in or get weighed.
  • Separate recyclables and organics where possible-California requires diversion in many places-so have items staged in the truck bed or trailer for faster unloading.
