Waste Management - Buffalo Ridge Landfill

Small but active landfill off County Road 59 in Keenesburg, used by local homeowners, landscapers and trucks hauling construction debris. It's the kind of place people swing by when a pickup bed is full or a jobsite needs an end point for garbage. Expect a working site rather than anything fancy - this is where trash gets buried.

Drive up and slow down for the entrance booth and the scale - tipping fees are charged by weight at most landfills, so plan for stops in and out. Trucks and trailers line up on busier days and the yard has large piles of cover dirt and compacted cells visible from the driveway. Loads are usually directed to a dumping area and then compacted, so bring straps and be ready to help guide your load. Weekends and spring cleanup times get the longest waits.
