Black Oak Landfill

Black Oak Landfill, 5054 Highway HH, Hartville, 65667, Missouri

Black Oak Landfill is the big county dump out on Highway HH near Hartville. It’s where local trash gets buried, and both neighborhood folks and commercial haulers drop loads here. Expect a working site with heavy equipment and large dirt cells rather than anything fancy.

Drive up to a small entrance booth and a scale-landfills like this charge tipping fees by weight, so there’s usually a weigh-in (and often another weigh-out). After the scale, drivers are directed to the active dumping area where bulldozers and compactors are moving material. The site is open, dusty in dry weather and muddy after rain, and long trucks fit but some turns and ramps can be tight. Weekends, especially spring cleanup times, tend to be the busiest.

Before You Go

  • Secure and tarp loose loads; wind and passing trucks will scatter debris and can slow you down or get you flagged.
  • Plan for weight-based fees: heavy loads add up, and commercial haulers are typically charged by the ton while residential drops often hit a minimum charge.
  • Bring a truck or trailer with decent clearance and have a helper if possible-dumping spots can be muddy and backing a long trailer into the working face takes patience.
