Construction Debris: What You Can (and Can't) Take to the Dump

Laurel Ridge Landfill is the county landfill just off E State Hwy 552 in Lily, used by local homeowners, haulers and commercial trucks hauling loads to be buried. It’s the final place for trash - not a transfer station or recycling center - so most people there are dropping off full loads for disposal.
Pull in off State Hwy 552 to an entrance with a small booth and a clear drive toward the tip area and working face. There’s a scale on site and tipping fees are handled by weight, which means a stop on the way in and often another stop when leaving. The facility is large enough for roll-offs and tractor-trailers, so expect to share the yard with commercial trucks as well as pickups and trailers. Lines can form on weekends and during spring cleanup season, and the site looks like a typical landfill - compacted cover, heavy equipment, and muddy spots after rain.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Have your load secured and tarp-ready; loose debris and blowing trash cause delays and extra cleanup.
- Be prepared to stop on a scale in and out - allow a few extra minutes for paperwork and weighing, especially if a commercial truck is ahead.
- Aim for weekdays if possible; weekends, holidays and spring cleanup times are when traffic and wait times spike.
