Newsme Landfill Operations LLC on W Old Town Access Rd is Old Town’s landfill for material that needs burial rather than recycling. Locals and commercial haulers use it when they’ve got large loads to get rid of, so expect a working, industrial feel rather than a tidy drop-off center.
A gravel drive leads to an entrance booth and a scale - landfills like this usually charge tipping fees by weight, so be prepared to be weighed. The yard is open with big dirt piles and heavy equipment moving around; trucks queue near the booth before being directed to a dumping spot. Payment is handled at the booth after weighing, though exact payment options can vary. Weekends and spring cleanup times often bring longer lines, so build extra time into the trip.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure and tarp loose loads before leaving home so debris doesn’t blow out and slow things down for everyone.
- Sort out obvious recyclables and anything that needs separate handling before getting to the gate to avoid extra shuffle once parked.
- Have a helper for backing and spotting if bringing a trailer or truck; the site is rough and maneuvering near piles and equipment can be tight.
