Peoria City - County Landfill

Peoria City - County Landfill is the regional burial site for municipal and commercial refuse serving Hanna City and surrounding areas. Farmers, local residents with big cleanup projects and commercial haulers all use this place to drop off loads that won’t go to a transfer station. It’s a working landfill on a fairly large parcel of land, so expect an industrial, no-frills setup.

Drive up to a small entrance booth and be prepared to pull onto a vehicle scale-this type of facility charges by weight so there’s usually a weigh-in and a weigh-out. After the booth, traffic funnels to unloading faces or cells where trucks tip and compactors push material; it looks like exposed soil, heavy equipment and staged piles rather than tidy containers. Smaller residential cars and trailers share the access road with roll-off trucks and end-dump rigs, so watch for dust and slow-moving equipment. Lines can form at peak times, with trucks queuing by the scale and the booth directing where to go next.
