Waste Management - Prairie Bluff Security Landfill

This is the Prairie Bluff Security Landfill just off Highway 15 north of Houston, used by local residents and commercial haulers alike. It's a larger landfill where garbage is buried rather than sorted, so both household junk and business loads are commonly taken here. Neighbors swing by with pickup loads or bigger trucks hauling construction debris.

Drive up to a staffed entrance booth and pull through to the scale-landfills of this type charge by weight, so the scale stop is part of the process. After weighing in, follow the signs or attendants to the active cell where crews will direct where to tip; the site is mostly heavy equipment, dirt roads, and compacted berms rather than neat rows of bins. Expect to wait a bit on busy Saturdays or during seasonal cleanups, and be prepared for dust and loose debris underfoot.
