Small, local disposal site in Dyersville that handles residential and farm-related drop-offs. Neighbors and farmers swing by with trailers, pickup loads and the odd bulky item; it's not a fancy transfer station, just practical and functional.
Expect a rural facility with a simple entrance and areas for dropping off material; it looks like other county sites-gravel drives, piles or bins and a small office or booth near the road. Drive up slowly, there’s usually a place to pull off if someone is unloading ahead of you. On busier days there can be a short line of trucks and pickups, especially during spring cleanup and harvest seasons.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure and tarp loads so debris doesn’t fly off on the way in; loose stuff can slow down unloading and draw extra attention.
- Bring basic tools and gloves for quick sorting and unloading - separating heavier items from lighter ones saves time once at the drop area.
- Plan to come midweek or mid-morning if possible; weekends and season-change times tend to be the busiest and parking/unloading can take longer.
