Webster Parish Landfill sits off Landfill Road in Minden and is where household trash, yard waste and contractor loads end up. Pickup trucks, roll-offs and commercial haulers turn through here, so expect a mix of neighbors and business vehicles. It’s the final place where refuse is buried.
Pull up to the entrance/scale area and prepare to be weighed - tipping fees are generally charged by weight and there’s often a stop on the way out as well. After weighing, drivers are directed to a dumping pad or cell; the ground can be uneven and dusty, so back in slow and steady. The site is mostly dirt roads, mounds of compacted material and open cells visible from the approach. Weekends and spring cleanup times tend to get backed up, so traffic can stack up at the entrance.
