Small local disposal site off Pettiet Lane that folks from Leland and nearby rural spots use to dump household trash and small loads. Mostly serves residential drop-offs rather than commercial hauls. It's the kind of place people go to when cleaning out a shed or after yard work.
Drive up the driveway and there’s usually a small entrance booth or gate area where traffic is sort of funneled in; prepare to pull up and wait your turn if someone’s already there. A scale is commonly nearby so vehicles may be weighed in and out, which means a short stop at both entry and exit for most loads. The yard looks like a typical disposal site - open tipping areas, piles of covered and uncovered material, and a few roll-off containers sitting off to one side. Weekends and spring cleanup times tend to be the busiest, so expect a line then and a quieter weekday if timing matters.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure tarps and tie downs so loose trash doesn’t blow out while driving to and from the site.
- Bring a photo ID and any local permit or proof of residency if needed by the county - some sites ask for it before accepting residential loads.
- Arrive earlier in the day to avoid long lines on weekends and during seasonal clean-up periods.
