Black Oak Landfill

Black Oak Landfill in Hartville is the local burial site for municipal and larger loads of trash. Neighbors, contractors and haulers drop off everything meant to be buried here. It's the kind of place that gets steady traffic from the county and surrounding rural roads.

A scale house is on site and tipping fees are charged by weight, so vehicles are normally weighed coming in and again on the way out. Pull up to the entrance booth, wait to be directed onto the scale, then follow the haul roads to the active cell or drop-off area. The site is open-air with compacted dirt roads, piles or lined cells visible from the main haul routes, and recycling or miscellaneous bins often clustered near the entrance. Weekends and spring cleanup periods tend to be the busiest, so expect some queuing at the scale.
