Tri-County Inert Landfill

Small county landfill just off Carey Station Road that people from Greensboro and the surrounding rural areas use for construction debris and bulky trash. It’s the kind of place trucks and pickups head to when they need to bury material rather than recycle it. Locals, contractors, and anyone hauling larger loads will end up here rather than at a drop-off center.

Drive up the long access road and you’ll see a scale house where vehicles stop to be weighed; tipping fees are handled based on weight, so plan for a weigh-in both entering and leaving. The site is open land with dirt roads, compacted cells and piles of inert material-flat areas for pulling up and tipping. Larger commercial loads are accepted, so expect to see dump trucks alongside pickup trailers; traffic can back up on busy weekends and during construction season. Recycling bins or convenience containers, if present, tend to sit off to one side past the main gate.
