Metro Park West Landfill

Metro Park West Landfill, 2499 337th Street, Perry, 50220, Iowa

Metro Park West Landfill sits out on 337th Street in Perry and is the place people bring big loads that won’t fit in curbside bins. Neighbors with trailers, landscapers, and small haulers all use it when they need to get rid of larger amounts of trash.

There’s a drive-up entrance with a scale-most landfills charge by weight, so expect to stop on the scale and again when you leave. An entrance booth and a short line of trucks are common on busier days; pull up to the booth area and wait your turn. The site is mostly packed dirt and gravel with large capped mounds of material and working trucks; it can be dusty after dry weather and rough under smaller vehicles. Tipping fees are generally weight-based and many landfills accept commercial loads, so plan for commercial-style paperwork if hauling business quantities.

Before You Go

  • Cover and secure loose loads so trash doesn’t blow out on the approach road; tarps and ratchet straps save a lot of cleanup.
  • Bring a copy of any municipal dump permit or vehicle paperwork that might apply to commercial loads-having documents handy speeds things up.
  • Avoid weekend mornings during spring cleanup if possible; those are the times lines and wait times tend to spike.
