Greenpoint Landfill

A working landfill on the north side of Broussard that handles large volumes of municipal and commercial refuse. Farmers, contractors and anyone hauling a trailer use this place when trash needs to be buried rather than recycled or picked up curbside.

Drive up a short access road and you’ll pass a scale and small entrance booth where vehicles are processed; the site bills by weight so expect to stop at the scale again leaving. The footprint is big - steep dirt berms, active tipping faces, and heavy trucks moving around; surfaces can be dusty in dry weather and slick after rain. Commercial loads are accepted and there’s a tipping-fee structure that typically charges by weight with a minimum for small loads. Given Louisiana’s climate, the facility operates with wet-weather and hurricane preparedness measures, so conditions and access can change quickly when storms roll through.
