Eastern Sanitary Landfill Solid Waste Management Facility

A large county landfill located in White Marsh, used by both residents doing big cleanouts and commercial haulers dropping off loads. It's the kind of place where trucks and trailers are common and traffic can get busy during peak times. Expect a working-site feel rather than anything slick or customer-facing.

Drive up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop at a scale - this site charges by weight, so you’ll typically stop twice, once in and once out. There are long, open tipping areas and rows of compacted material on the cells, with heavy equipment moving around; watch for haul trucks and loaders. Smaller residential vehicles usually follow separate routing from commercial trucks, but both share the main entrance and scale. Lines and waiting times can build up on weekends and during seasonal cleanups, so bring patience and secure any loose material on trailers.
