Goodrich Landfill is out on Goodrich Road near Council and is where locals haul household trash and yard or construction debris. There’s a scale on site so charges are by weight, with a tipping-fee schedule (typically a per-ton rate with minimums). Facilities like this often accept commercial loads as well, so expect trucks and trailers mixed in with pickup traffic.
Drive up a gravel lane to an entrance booth and a scale - stop to have the load weighed before proceeding to the dumping area. The site is open and dusty in dry weather, with piles and compacted working areas and trucks coming and going. Lines are common on weekends and during spring cleanup season, so trailers and big loads can take extra time. Payment is usually handled at the booth after weighing, and signs or staff directions will point to where to dump specific materials.
