The site is large and mostly bare earth with piles, heavy equipment and clearly marked drive lanes; traffic can back up during weekends and after storms. After weighing, vehicles are usually directed to a dumping area or separate yard-waste pile, then back over the scale to finish.

Before You Go
- Bring a secure tarp and tie-downs so material doesn't fly out on the road; loose loads can slow you down and make for extra cleanup at the site.
- Avoid peak times: mornings on weekdays are often quieter, while weekends and post-hurricane days get long waits.
- Pre-sort bulky yard waste from mixed loads if possible - many county landfills have separate areas for vegetative debris which saves time at the drop-off.
