Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.

Farmers, suburban households and people from nearby small towns use it when hauling out regular loads or cleanup debris. The place is straightforward and laid out for trucks and trailers rather than walk-in foot traffic.
Drive up the main gravel lane and you’ll pass an entry booth and a scale area typical of county sites, so plan for a brief stop at the gate. The yard is mostly open with large piles, roll-off containers and compacting equipment visible from the entrance, and vehicles pull up to different spots depending on what they’re unloading. Recycling or special-material bins are usually grouped to one side while general trash goes to larger cells or drop-off areas. Lines can form on weekends and during seasonal cleanups, and winter weather can make the access road rough or slippery.
