Stevens County Landfill
Stevens County Landfill, 1468 Road 13, Hugoton, 67951, Kansas
Stevens County Landfill sits out on 1468 Road 13 in Hugoton - the county dump where household cleanups, farm trucks and commercial haulers drop off trash. Small town users and contractors both show up here when something needs burying.
Drive in to a gate or entrance booth and you'll usually stop at a vehicle scale; landfill tipping fees are typically charged by weight, so expect to be weighed. After the scale, pull forward to the active tipping area or cell and unload where directed - the site is mostly gravel, mounded dirt and heavy equipment. County landfills commonly accept commercial loads and fee structures usually distinguish commercial from residential tonnage. On busy days it can get dusty and slow, especially when bigger trucks are working the face.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Cover and tie down loads before leaving home so nothing blows out on the road; loose trash can hold things up.
- Organize the load in the truck so bulky items are easy to pull out first - it makes unloading quicker and may avoid extra stops.
- Skip heavy weekend traffic and spring-cleanup rushes if possible; midweek mornings usually move faster and lines are shorter.
