DeLand Landfill, Inc. is the local landfill in DeLand where household and larger loads end up for burial. Neighbors, landscapers and haulers all use it when trash or construction debris needs a final drop-off.
Drive up to an entrance booth and be prepared to cross a scale-landfills typically charge by weight, so vehicles are weighed in and out. There’s a clear lane for trailers and larger trucks; pull up to the booth, get directed to the drop area, then follow signs to the active cell where material is dumped. The site is large and mostly open earth with compacted trenches and heavy equipment moving material, and recycling or yard-waste areas are often located off to the side at Florida facilities. Weekends and storm-recovery periods can get backed up, so expect lines at peak times.

- Have a rough idea of load type and vehicle weight-since charges are by weight, splitting trips or choosing a different vehicle changes the bill.
- Allow extra time during hurricane season and spring yard-cleanup; traffic and wait times increase, and separate areas for yard waste are commonly busy.
