Mc Duffie County Landfill

514 Tankersley Rd, Thomson, GA 30824

(706) 595-2374

Small county landfill on Tankersley Road used by residents and local haulers in Thomson and surrounding areas. It's the final-place dump where garbage and bulky stuff get buried rather than recycled or transferred. Locals, contractors, and anyone with a truck or trailer will find it useful for big cleanouts.

There’s an entrance booth and a scale to drive over-vehicles usually stop to be weighed on the way in and again on the way out since tipping fees are charged by weight or by set minimums. The site is open-air with dirt roads and a visible working face where trucks tip loads; expect dusty conditions and heavy equipment moving around. Pull up to the attendant/booth first, follow directions from flaggers or signs, and then proceed to the tipping area; larger commercial trucks are commonly accepted at county landfills, though they follow a different fee structure than residential loads.

Before You Go

  • Cover and secure loose materials with a tarp or straps before the trip-wind can make a mess and staff will expect loads contained.
  • Plan for a short wait on weekends and during spring cleanup; arriving midweek usually moves faster.
  • Drive slowly inside the site, watch for heavy equipment, and make sure trailers are easy to unhitch or maneuver before entering the tipping area.
