A working county landfill just off Arbuckle Creek Road that locals use for big cleanouts and contractor drops. It’s the final stop for household trash and larger commercial loads, so expect a wide open, industrial-feeling site. The place sees steady traffic year-round, and gets particularly busy around storm cleanup seasons.
Drive up to an entrance booth and be ready to move slowly through; there’s a scale where trucks get weighed and tipping fees are calculated by weight. Pull up to the drop-off area or cell as directed, and be prepared to back into a pile or platform to unload. Yard waste and storm debris are often separated into different piles, and the site looks like long rows of compacted cells, heavy equipment, and tall berms. Weekends and the weeks after storms will have longer lines, so plan for some waiting.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Cover loose loads and secure tarps so debris doesn’t blow out while driving or waiting in line.
- Have a plan for backing and unloading-many bays require reversing a trailer or truck bed to the drop point.
- Avoid peak times if possible: weekend mornings and the days after any major yard-cleanup or storm events tend to be the busiest.
