Clearview Landfill

Clearview Landfill is the county-style landfill out on Mudline Road that people from around Lake bring bulky trash to. Mostly used by residents cleaning out garages and by haulers with larger loads, it’s where trash ends up being buried rather than recycled or dropped at a convenience center. Expect a fairly large, open site with working areas and a weigh station near the entrance.

There’s a scale booth you’ll drive over - tipping fees are handled by weight, so stopping twice is normal: once in and once out. A small office or booth sits near the gate for check-in and directions to the dumping area; traffic flow sends vehicles up to the tipping face and then back down to the scale. The site looks like a wide dirt and gravel yard with heavy equipment, roll-off trucks, and piles of recently covered sections; weekends, especially during seasonal cleanups, often have the longest lines. Commercial loads are accepted at landfills of this type, so expect trucks and trailers alongside pickup trucks and trailers from households.
