Gordon County Redbone Ridges Landfill
Gordon County Redbone Ridges Landfill, 1224 Pleasant Hill Road Extension NE, Ranger, 30734, Georgia
Gordon County Redbone Ridges Landfill on Pleasant Hill Road Extension NE is the county landfill serving Ranger and nearby areas. Not a curbside drop-off - this is a full-scale landfill where household and larger loads end up buried.
There's an entrance booth and a scale near the road; most landfills in this category use weight-based tipping fees, so be prepared to be weighed and to stop again leaving. The site is large with compacted dirt cells and heavy equipment moving around, and the access road is usually gravel. Pull up to the scale lane, follow the flow of trucks to the active unloading area, and give big vehicles plenty of space.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure and tarp loose loads before getting on the highway - wind and gravel can scatter trash quickly.
- Avoid weekend mornings and spring-cleanup weekends if possible; lines and waiting times get noticeably longer then.
- Drive slow on site, watch for loaders and dump trucks, and position the vehicle so unloading is straightforward (backing in can save time).
