Small but active county landfill on the edge of Boone, mostly used by local residents and farming operations. It’s the kind of place commercial haulers use too, so expect larger trucks mixed in with pickups and trailers. Seasonal farm traffic bumps up activity in spring and fall.
There’s a scale house near the entrance where vehicles stop to be weighed, so plan to slow down and pull into the booth lane. After checking in, drivers usually follow a gravel road up to the working face; expect dusty roads and visible cover material and compacted piles. Large roll-off trucks and dump trucks are common, which makes maneuvering a bit tighter than a small transfer station. Lines can form on weekends and during busy farm seasons, so allow extra time if hauling a big load.

- Bring a trailer or truck that can back up easily; some drop-off points require precise positioning at the unloading face.
- Avoid peak times if possible: early mornings on weekdays are usually quicker than weekend or midday farm rushes.
