Waste Facility
Muskegon County SWF
Muskegon County SWF, 9366 Apple Avenue, Ravenna, 49451, Michigan
Muskegon County SWF at 9366 Apple Avenue in Ravenna is the county solid waste site locals use for household cleanouts and bulky items. Neighbors and small haulers turn up when they need to dump a load rather than deal with curbside pickup.
The place looks like a typical county dump - an entrance booth and a scale are usually part of the process, so drivers pull up, check in, and are sent to the right drop area. Expect open lots and piles of material rather than a neat retail yard; trucks and trailers move through the space. Most people end up stopping at the scale more than once because county sites commonly charge by weight, so plan for a short stop on the way out as well.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Tie down and cover loose items before leaving home - it keeps stuff from falling out and makes unloading quicker.
- Sort things roughly ahead of time so unloading doesn’t turn into a long shuffle between piles; have bulky items separated from smaller debris.
- Try to avoid weekend mornings, especially during spring cleanup season, since lines and wait times can build up.
