Small county-scale landfill out on Bennett Road that locals and haulers use when nothing else will do. It’s the place where trash gets buried and larger construction or commercial loads are taken. People bring everything from pickup truck cleanouts to roll-off truck deliveries.
A weigh scale is part of the process - loads are typically weighed and tipping fees are charged by weight, so expect to stop and be weighed. There’s an entrance booth and traffic lanes for larger trucks; follow the flow and watch for equipment moving around the working face. The site looks like a working industrial lot with dirt roads, compacted slopes of cover material, and areas for dropping loads before they’re pushed into place. Weekends and spring cleanup times can be busy, so there may be a line of vehicles waiting to get through the scale.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Have your load covered or contained so loose material doesn’t blow out while driving to the site.
- Make sure your vehicle or trailer can handle gravel and uneven surfaces; low-clearance cars can struggle on the access roads.
- Plan for possible wait time during weekends or seasonal cleanups and avoid peak midday if trying to move quickly.
