Woodland Meadows RDF

5900 Hannan Rd., Wayne, MI 48184

800-963-4776

Woodland Meadows RDF is the local disposal site people from Wayne and nearby neighborhoods use when regular curbside won’t do. It handles community waste drop-offs and sees everything from small carloads to the pickup trucks that show up with spring cleanup loads.

Drive up to an entrance booth and pull into the lane like at a transfer station; there’s usually a scale area where vehicles stop so loads can be recorded and charged. The site is open-air with piles and compactors in the middle and a few paved lanes for trucks to navigate; signs and low fences mark different sections. Recycling or bottle drop spots are typically off to one side-remember Michigan’s bottle/can deposit system means refundable containers are often handled elsewhere. Expect weekends, especially in spring and fall, to be busier and a little slower-moving than weekday visits.

Before You Go

  • Arrive with loose items accessible so unloading at the drop point goes quicker; backing a truck into a lane is common practice.
  • Keep refundable bottles and cans separate and plan to take them to a return center in town if hoping for deposits back.
  • Bring a tarp or straps if hauling loose debris-the yard can be windy and securing a load helps avoid fines or extra clean-up on the way out.
