County landfill serving Montgomery and surrounding areas. A big, working site where residential and commercial haulers drop off trash for burial, with the scale and tipping-fee setup typical of regional landfills.
Drive up to an entrance booth and lanes where trucks line up; the site is large and looks like a typical landfill - compacted piles, cover soil, and heavy equipment moving about. Loads are usually weighed on a scale and tipping fees are charged based on that weight, so expect to stop for paperwork and weighing. Commercial trucks are generally accepted at county landfills, and there’s often a separate traffic flow for larger vehicles versus cars and pickups.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loads before leaving home; loose items can blow out on the road and can slow unloading at the site.
- Bring any county permit or ID you might need, since landfills often require proof of residency or authorization for disposal.
- Avoid weekend peak times if possible-spring cleanup and holiday weekends typically mean longer lines and slower service.
