Zion Landfill

Zion Landfill at 701 Green Bay Road is the landfill in Zion where people bring bulky household junk and contractor loads that won’t fit in regular curbside pickup. It’s an industrial-feeling spot with trucks, dirt roads and large berms of soil. Neighbors use it for big cleanouts and remodeling debris.

There’s usually a scale and an entrance booth; most landfills charge tipping fees by weight, so expect a weigh-in and weigh-out. The site is fairly large, with routes for big trucks and areas where loads are dumped and moved by heavy equipment, so drive carefully while maneuvering. Commercial haulers commonly show up at landfills and tipping fees often have different structures for commercial versus residential loads. Busy cleanup times can create lines, so allow a bit of extra time for unloading.
