Landfill
Arbor Hills Landfill Inc.
Arbor Hills Landfill Inc., 10690 W. Six Mile Road, Northville, 48168, Michigan
Arbor Hills Landfill Inc. in Northville is the local landfill where household loads and larger hauls end up. Neighbors, landscapers and commercial trucks all show up here - it’s a working, no-frills place where trash gets buried and heavy equipment is common.
The site is large and open, with towering piles of compacted material and earth-moving machines moving about. There’s an entrance booth and a scale near the drive-in, so expect to stop twice - once going in and again on the way out if they charge by weight. Drive-up areas for dropping loads are roomy but dusty, and bigger trucks are a regular sight. Weekends, especially during spring cleanup, can get backed up with a line of pickups and roll-offs waiting.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Sort and secure the load before pulling up so unloading goes faster - loose stuff blows around on windy days.
- Have a clear spot in your vehicle for smaller items so the crew (or the driver) can toss them quickly without rummaging.
- Try to avoid weekend mornings in spring if possible; timing midweek or later in the afternoon usually means a shorter line.
