Midshore Regional Landfill

Midshore Regional Landfill in Easton is the large county landfill where tractor-trailers and pickups bring final-burial loads. Locals and haulers use it for material that needs to be buried rather than recycled. It’s the kind of place that looks like active construction most days, with heavy gear moving dirt and compacted piles of trash.

Drive up to a small entrance booth and be prepared to stop - there’s a scale involved so vehicles usually cross once in and again on the way out to record weight. After the booth, lanes split toward tipping areas and the working cells; big trucks head straight to the active face while smaller vehicles are waved into a spot to unload. The site is dusty and noisy at times, with bulldozers and compactors visible; plan for some mud or gravel depending on weather. Lines build on weekends and during spring cleanups, so queues at the entrance are not uncommon.
