Smallish county landfill out on Beulah Road used by locals and contractors alike. Folks bring household trash, yard debris and commercial loads when needed; expect this to be the place where things actually get buried and covered. It sits on a fairly large parcel with obvious roads and a scale house at the entrance.
Follow the driveway past the entrance booth and be prepared to stop at a scale - tipping fees are charged, usually by weight with a residential minimum. Trucks and trailers pull in, dump on a working face, and there are separate piles for yard waste and bulky items out on the side during busy periods. Lines form on weekends and after storms, so bring patience and have items sorted before getting there. The site looks like a typical landfill: compacted rows, heavy equipment moving material, and gravel driveways rather than paved lots.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Have loads sorted and tarps ready; loose debris and mixed loads slow things down once on site.
- Expect backups after hurricanes or big yard-cleanup weekends - budget extra time if hauling on a Saturday.
- Know whether the load is residential or commercial ahead of time; commercial loads are accepted but handled differently at the scale house.
