Roxana Landfill

Roxana Landfill, 4600 Cahokia Creek Road, Edwardsville, 62025, Illinois

Roxana Landfill on Cahokia Creek Road in Edwardsville is the local landfill a lot of residents and haulers use for bulky household trash and construction debris. It’s a big, working landfill rather than a small transfer station, so expect heavy equipment and large tipping areas.

There’s an entrance booth and a weigh scale - most landfills charge tipping fees by weight, so plan to be weighed in and out. Pull up to the booth first, then follow the drive toward the active tipping face where trucks unload and bulldozers move material around. The site is spread out with gravel drives and visible landfill cells rising above the road, so give larger rigs extra room to maneuver. Weekends and spring cleanup times often mean lines at the scale and slower traffic through the site.

Before You Go

  • Cover and tie down loose loads; wind and dust are real issues on the drive in and out.
  • Sort and stage items in the truck before entering - it speeds the unload and keeps trailers turning quicker.
  • Expect weight tickets for larger jobs; keep them for records and try to avoid peak weekend times if possible.
