Waste Management - Mountainview Landfill

Mountainview Landfill in Frostburg is the large, final-burial landfill run by Waste Management that people drop full loads at - both residential and commercial users tend to show up here. The site handles high-volume deliveries, so expect a working, industrial feel rather than a tidy neighborhood drop-off. It’s the place trucks and trailers go when there’s nowhere else to take filled loads.

Drive up New Georges Creek Road and there’s an entrance booth and a weigh scale that vehicles cross; they charge by weight, so most visitors stop on the outbound scale after dumping. The property is expansive with compacted dirt roads, open tipping faces and heavy equipment moving material; watch for loaders and haul trucks. Pull into the booth lane for directions from the attendant and then follow traffic flow to the active tipping area - larger commercial trucks have room to maneuver but expect slow turns. The site looks rough and utilitarian: piles, cover soil areas, and the occasional windblown debris around fenced edges.
