Dump
Waterbury Municipal Dump
220 Mark Ln, Waterbury, CT 06704, United States
Small municipal dump used by Waterbury residents for household cleanouts and routine trash drop-offs. Located on Mark Lane, it’s the local spot people use when town pickup isn’t enough. Expect a working, no-frills site rather than anything fancy.
Drive up to a gate/booth area where vehicles are queued and checked before entering the main tipping area. There’s a drive-in route with piles, containers, and a few concrete bunkers rather than a tidy row of bins. Trucks and pickups are common, so give yourself room to maneuver and watch for heavy equipment and backing vehicles. Leaving usually means passing the booth again or using a scale if the site charges by weight.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring sturdy gloves and closed-toe shoes; surfaces are uneven and there’s loose debris underfoot.
- Drop larger items from the truck bed as close to the containers or piles as possible to avoid extra lifting or walking.
- Avoid peak weekend times like spring cleanups if possible; lines build up and it moves slower when lots of pickups are waiting.
