Construction Debris: What You Can (and Can't) Take to the Dump
Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.
Read more →Hodgeman County Landfill is the county dump a few miles outside Jetmore where local residents and haulers drop off household trash and larger loads. It’s the kind of place used by people from town and surrounding farms when curbside pickup isn’t enough. The site is a working landfill with a vehicle scale and tipping fees based on weight.
Drive up to an entrance booth or gate area and you’ll see a scale for weighing trucks-landfill charges are calculated by weight, so you’ll stop on the scale both in and out. The tipping face and cover equipment are visible from the access road; bring something to cover loads if hauling loose material. Trucks usually pull up, dump at the instructed spot, and then return to the scale; commercial loads are commonly handled at county landfills like this one. The site is open-air and rural-expect gravel driveways, heavy equipment around, and simple signage marking the access and drop-off points.
