Wichita County Landfill is the county dump out on 13500 Road R near Leoti, where household and larger loads end up being buried. Locals and contractors swing by with everything from bagged trash to trailer loads of construction material, so expect a working, no-frills site.
Most county landfills have a scale and an entrance booth, so plan on stopping to be weighed and then again when you leave; tipping fees are typically structured by weight or by material type. Drive slowly in - the access road leads toward the working face where trucks back in to tip, and the ground can be dusty or muddy depending on weather. The site is sizeable with visible trash mounds and heavy equipment moving around, so watch for loaders and trucks while maneuvering. Lines can form at busy times, especially weekends and seasonal cleanups.
