Republic Services Dozit Landfill is the big local landfill just off State Rt 360 that handles residential and commercial trash for the Morganfield area. Trucks from farms, contractors and homeowners head here when curbside or smaller transfer sites won't cut it.
The site is large and spread out - think long drive lanes and open cells where material gets buried. There's a weigh scale and an entrance booth, so plan for a slow roll in and another stop on the way out since tipping fees are charged by weight. Commercial loads are accepted, so expect to see roll-off trucks, dump trailers and larger trucks maneuvering around. Lines can build up at busy times, and the lot surface is mostly gravel and compacted areas rather than paved lanes.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Have your load secured and tarped if needed before reaching the booth so unloading is quick and safe.
- Bring a map or directions; the site sits a little off the main road and mobile signal can be spotty around the entrance.
- If hauling bulky or heavy material with a trailer, allow extra time for lining up and getting on the scale - weekends and spring cleanup days get crowded.
