Murray County Landfill

Murray County Landfill is the county landfill out on US-411 in Chatsworth, the place trucks and pickups go when trash gets buried for the last time. Locals and contractors both use it-this is the kind of facility that handles larger loads and operates on a tipping fee structure rather than flat curbside pickup.

Drive in and spot an entrance booth and a scale-vehicles are typically weighed so expect to stop on the scale on the way in and again leaving. The site is large, with rows of compacted earth and a working face where material is deposited; larger trucks pull up close to that area while smaller vehicles are directed to a different drop point. There’s usually a clear flow of traffic: slow down at the booth, follow attendants’ directions or signage for the scale and drop-off, then return to the scale for final weighing. Lines can form at peak times, so allow extra time if hauling a big load.
