Clayton County SR 3 Lovejoy Landfill

Clayton County SR 3 Lovejoy Landfill, 11678 Hastings Bridge Road, Lovejoy, 30250, Georgia

Clayton County SR 3 Lovejoy Landfill sits off Hastings Bridge Road in Lovejoy and handles the county’s buried waste. Locals bring everything from pickup-load cleanouts to commercial truck deliveries, so expect a mix of vehicles and heavy equipment.

Drive up to a weigh scale and a small entrance booth; tipping fees are charged by weight, so most people stop on both the in and out scales. The property is big with dirt access roads, high mounds of compacted trash, and front-end loaders moving around-give heavy equipment plenty of room. Pull-up lanes lead to tipping faces where trailers and pickups unload; backing can be tight, so take it slow when maneuvering. Weekends and spring-cleanup season get backed up, especially when big trucks are onsite.

Before You Go

  • Secure loads with tarps and straps before leaving home - loose debris makes unloading slower and can end up on the road.
  • Sort materials ahead of time so recyclables or bulky items can be handled separately; recycling/drop-off areas are commonly off to the side and speed things up.
  • Try to visit midweek if possible; avoiding weekends and early morning rushes will cut down on wait time when heavy trucks are around.
