Sheridan County Landfill

KS-23, Hoxie, KS 67740

(785) 675-3776

A county landfill just outside Plentywood where locals and haulers drop household and commercial trash. It’s the kind of place people from several nearby towns use when the burn barrel or curb pickup isn’t an option. Big trucks and trailers are common here, especially during cleanup season.

Drive in down Mann Road and you’ll see a small scale booth and a pull-through scale pad-landfills in this area usually charge by weight, so plan to stop on the way in and again to get a final ticket. The site is mostly open dirt and gravel with rows of worked-over cells and equipment piles; there’s not much in the way of landscaping. Recycling or special drop-offs, if available, tend to be set off to one side past the entrance area. Weekends and spring cleanup days get busy, and winter weather can make the access road slick.

Before You Go

  • Secure loads well before leaving town-windy gravel roads and the drive onto the pad will toss loose stuff everywhere.
  • Expect to pause at the scale twice; keep an empty spot in the truck so dumping and reweighing are easier.
  • Allow extra travel time in winter and on spring weekends; parking areas can fill and maneuvering large trailers takes patience.
