Drive up the gravel entrance to a single lane with a small booth near the gate; expect to stop briefly to check in. Vehicles then swing into a larger yard area where crews or equipment move loads into a compactor or collection area. The site is open-air with concrete pads and piles of material visible from the drive; trucks maneuver around, so take it slow. Weekends and post-holiday times are noticeably busier, and larger trucks need more room to turn.
