Glasgow City Landfill

Glasgow City Landfill is the big burial site a few miles out of town that locals use for bulky junk and household cleanouts. Truckers and regular folks bring everything from curbside bags to construction debris. It's the kind of place that sees steady traffic from Glasgow and nearby counties.

Drive up Glen Garry Road toward the landfill and you'll see the entrance booth and the scale where commercial and residential loads are checked - most landfills charge tipping fees based on weight or volume. Pull into the booth lane, stop for the attendant at the scale, then follow the signs to the active cell or drop-off area; large piles and compacted cover are visible across the site. Expect a mix of roll-off trucks, pickup trucks with trailers, and occasional rollovers of heavy equipment moving material around. Weekends and spring cleanup times tend to be busier, with a short wait at the scale and more traffic on the internal roads.
