A county solid waste site on the edge of Allison that handles household and farm-related trash and recycling. Farmers and local residents both turn up here, especially in the spring and fall when cleanup is happening.
Drive up to an entrance with a small booth where vehicles pause before pulling onto the site. There’s a scale to run across if bringing a larger load, so plan for a stop on the way out as well. The property is open and functional rather than landscaped-piles, bins and roll-offs are spread out across gravel pads. Busy times back up into the entrance lane, so expect a line if it’s a weekend or a seasonal clean-up period.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Arrive with loads tarped or tied down tight so loose material isn’t an issue when unloading.
- Separate recyclables and yard debris from general trash before getting out of the truck to speed things up.
- Bring a way to secure smaller items in the bed or trailer; windy days can scatter loose debris on the drive onto the site.
