Waste Path Sanitary Landfill LLC
Waste Path Sanitary Landfill LLC, 1637 Shar-Cal Road, Calvert City, 42029, Kentucky
Waste Path Sanitary Landfill LLC on Shar-Cal Road in Calvert City is the local landfill where residential and commercial loads get buried. Trucks, contractors and folks with pickup loads stop here to tip and have their loads weighed.
There’s typically an entrance booth and a set of scales; tipping fees are charged by weight so expect to stop on the scale. Pull up to the booth first, then head to the scale and follow the attendants’ directions to the active tipping area. The site looks industrial-big dirt piles, heavy equipment moving around, and gravel roads for trucks. Weekends and spring cleanup times usually have the longest lines.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure and tarp loose items so trash doesn’t blow out on the drive in; loose debris is a common hassle here.
- Be ready for weight-based charges: have commercial paperwork handy if hauling for business and be prepared to wait for the in/out weighing process.
- Try to avoid weekend mornings and known seasonal cleanups when lines back up; midweek typically moves faster if a quicker trip is needed.
