Small, local dump serving Halfway and surrounding rural areas. Expect mostly residential drivers dropping off household and yard debris rather than a big commercial transfer station. The site feels like a neighborhood spot rather than a city operation.
Drive off State Hwy J down a short gravel or paved drive to a simple entrance area; many people stop at a small booth or take a ticket before moving to the tipping area. The yard is open with piles or containers for different types of material, and trucks or pickups pull alongside a low concrete or metal curb to tip loads. Lines can form on weekends and during spring cleanup, so there may be some waiting if several vehicles arrive at once.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring help or gloves for lifting heavy items - most dumping is manual and some pieces need two people to tip safely.
- Have trash sorted in the truck or trailer before getting to the site so unloading is quicker; loose stuff like bags and small debris can be the slowest to get out.
- Expect uneven surfaces and loose gravel; lower-clearance cars should approach slowly and watch for ruts and potholes.
