Walker County Sanitary Landfill

5120 N Marble Top Rd, Chickamauga, GA 30707

(706) 375-8910

Small county landfill out on N Marble Top Road that locals - both homeowners and haulers - use when they need somewhere to bury household and construction debris. It’s the kind of place where pickups and roll-offs are as common as cars, and you’ll see plenty of dump trucks coming and going.

Drive up to a staffed entrance booth and be prepared to stop at a scale; landfills of this scale typically charge by weight so vehicles stop twice, in and out. The site is mostly open pits and earthen cells with heavy equipment moving material around, so expect noise and dust on windy days. Pull up slowly to the tipping area when directed, then follow attendants or signage back to the weigh scale to finish. Lines form on weekends and during spring cleanups, so there can be a wait if several commercial trucks are ahead of you.

Before You Go

  • Have your load secured and cover loose debris before getting into line-loose trash often gets a fine or requires extra handling.
  • Keep large items organized in the truck bed so tipping is quick; that helps moves the line along and saves time.
  • Try to visit midweek if possible; commercial traffic and weekend cleanups make mornings busiest.
