A straightforward county solid waste site just outside Malta that locals use for household trash, yard debris and drop-off recycling. Small-town traffic keeps it busy at predictable times, and most people come with trailers or pickup loads.
The site feels like a working lot: a gravel drive, a small entrance area and piles or containers for different materials. Expect to pull up to a booth or stop briefly at a scale-these places usually track vehicle types and loads before directing vehicles where to go. Recycling and yard-waste areas are set a short walk or drive from the entry, with general trash drop-off in the main tipping area. Weekends and spring-cleaning season are when lines and waiting are most likely.
Facility Information
Before You Go

- Load similar items together so it’s quicker to unload and move through the site.
- Avoid peak times if possible; early weekday mornings or late afternoons usually have shorter waits than weekends.
