City of Canton Sanitary Landfill

City of Canton Sanitary Landfill on Soldier Colony Road is Canton’s municipal landfill where household and commercial trash ends up buried. Residents, local haulers and businesses use it for final disposal rather than recycling or transfer.

Drive in from Soldier Colony Road and follow the approach to a small entrance area with a scale house; vehicles are commonly weighed on the way in and again on the way out. Pull up to the tipping area indicated by signs or staff direction and unload into the active cell - expect other trucks, compactors, and dusty roads. The site looks like large earth mounds and compacted areas with open working space; it can be noisy and dirty, especially on busy days. Tipping fees are typically charged (by weight or flat fee structures are common) and commercial loads are usually handled under different rates.
