A local drop-off for household and small commercial loads, used by residents around Homosassa and nearby communities. It handles everyday trash and the kind of yard debris Florida generates year-round, and sees heavier traffic when storms pass through.
Drive up to a small entrance booth and be prepared to stop briefly; many similar facilities use a scale for vehicle weights so there may be a second stop after unloading. The site is open-air with big roll-off areas and piles for different material types; yard waste is often sorted to one side. Weekends and post-storm days get busy, so there can be a line of trucks and trailers waiting to get in.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring a tarp or straps to keep loose material contained-Florida wind and travel can turn a load into a mess if not secured.
- Separate green/yard debris from mixed trash before getting in line; many places put yard waste in its own pile, which speeds unloading.
- Avoid peak times like weekend mornings or the days right after a storm if possible, because traffic and wait times increase noticeably.
