Blanchard Dump and Trash Compactor

Small municipal dump on Dixie Blanchard Road that locals bring household trash and small loads to. It’s the kind of place neighbors use when a pickup bed or trailer is full and the regular curbside pickup won’t do. The yard is practical, not pretty - meant for getting rid of stuff and moving on.

Most dumps in this area have an entrance booth and a weigh scale, so plan on stopping at the front to check in and then again on the way out to be weighed. The site itself is open and gravelly; expect mud when it’s been raining hard and some standing water after storms since Louisiana facilities deal with high moisture. Recycling bins or compactors are often off to the side of the main tipping area, while the tipping face and large roll-off areas are obvious from the lane. Weekends and spring cleanup days tend to draw the biggest lines, so there can be a bit of wait time before getting to the drop-off.
