Tangipahoa Parish Regional Solid Waste Facility
Tangipahoa Parish Regional Solid Waste Facility, 57510 Hano Road, Independence, 70443, Louisiana
Tangipahoa Parish Regional Solid Waste Facility on Hano Road is the local spot people go to when cleaning out garages, mowing yards, or getting rid of household trash. Neighbors and small haulers show up with mixed loads-recycling, yard waste and regular trash are what this place handles most of the time.
There’s a small entrance booth and a scale, so plan to stop at the front and again to be weighed if the site charges by weight. The recycling bins are usually off to the right past the booth, with drop-off areas for yard waste and general trash further in. It’s a working site with trucks coming through and open piles or containers, so expect dust and some noise. Weekends, especially during spring cleanup, tend to have the longest lines.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Have materials sorted before getting to the gate - flattened cardboard and bagged recyclables speed things up.
- Bring someone to help with heavy or bulky items; lanes can be tight and unloading is physical work.
- Tarp loads and secure loose debris for the drive in, and aim for weekday mornings if trying to avoid the busiest times.
