Granger Wood Street Landfill, 16980 Wood Road, Lansing, 48906, Michigan

Granger Wood Street Landfill at 16980 Wood Road in Lansing is a large municipal landfill where both residential haulers and commercial trucks bring loads to be buried. Neighbors and contractors use it when a pickup load or a contractor dump needs a final place to go.

Drive up to an entrance booth and you’ll cross a scale - tipping fees are assessed by weight, so vehicles are often weighed in and then again on the way out. The site is dominated by heavy equipment, capped cells and big gravel roads; expect dust and the usual industrial feel. Trucks queue up at the weigh station and then move to drop-off areas for unloading, so allow extra time if there’s a line. Weekends, especially during spring cleanup season, tend to be the busiest.

Before You Go

  • Secure and tarp loads before leaving home; loose debris or shifting loads slow things down and can create a mess at the drop-off.
  • Plan for two weighings (in and out) and keep the truck bed arranged so unloading is quick - grouping items together speeds the process.
  • Avoid weekend mornings if possible; bringing gloves, a shovel and an extra set of hands makes dropping off bulky stuff much faster.
