Westover/Ring Sanitary Landfill

Westover/Ring Sanitary Landfill, 8716 James Ring Road, Westover, 21871, Maryland

Westover/Ring Sanitary Landfill on James Ring Road is the place in Westover where trash gets buried instead of recycled or processed elsewhere. Homeowners with big cleanups, local haulers and contractors all use it when something needs final disposal.

The site is pretty large - expect open cells, dirt berms and heavy equipment moving around rather than a neat transfer-station setup. There’s typically an entrance booth and a scale; at most landfills drivers stop, pull up to the tipping area to unload, then often get weighed on the way out. Tipping fees are usually charged by weight or by load, and commercial trucks are commonly accepted at places like this. Lines can pile up on weekends and during spring cleanups, so be ready for a bit of waiting and some mud in wet weather.

Before You Go

  • Secure and cover loose material before hauling; loose debris blows and creates extra work when unloading.
  • Sort bulky stuff - metal, wood, concrete - ahead of time so unloading goes faster and the truck doesn’t need to be rummaged through.
  • Wear sturdy boots and gloves; the ground is uneven, there’s heavy equipment nearby, and things get muddy after rain.
