Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.

Gose Pike Convenience Landfill is the municipal landfill serving the Danville area; it's the place where trash gets buried rather than recycled or processed. Local residents and commercial haulers both use it, especially when bigger loads need a final disposal spot.
The site looks like a working landfill-long drive in, a scale house or weigh station near the entrance, and large tipping areas beyond the office. Landfills charge tipping fees, usually by weight, so expect to stop at the scale on the way in and again on the way out. Traffic can back up during weekends or seasonal cleanups, and large trucks and compactors are common around the active cells.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Have any load paperwork or manifests ready if hauling business or commercial loads; commercial deliveries are commonly handled at facilities this size.
- Drive slowly and watch for heavy equipment and one-way traffic patterns; follow signs and attendants directing vehicles to the scale and tipping face.
- Secure loads so debris doesn’t blow out on the drive in; weekends and spring cleanup times tend to be the busiest, so allow extra time.
