Loess Hills Regional Sanitary Landfill

Loess Hills Regional Sanitary Landfill in Malvern (59722 290th Street) is the regional burial site where trash is covered and buried rather than processed. People who use it range from homeowners hauling a pickup load to larger haulers bringing commercial loads to the scale.

The site feels big and industrial - mounded cells, dirt roads, and regular truck traffic, so expect dust in dry weather and mud after rain. There is typically an entrance booth and a vehicle scale at landfills of this size, and tipping fees are commonly charged by weight, so stopping on the way out for a final weigh is normal. Pull up slowly, follow any site signage or directions, and be ready to drive to specific drop-off locations for different material types. Weekends and spring cleanup times tend to be busiest, so lines and slow moving trucks are common.
