Gering City Landfill
Gering City Landfill, 200530 West Drive, Gering, 69341, Nebraska
Gering City Landfill is the municipal landfill on West Drive in Gering, where local household and construction trash gets buried. Residents and business haulers use it when trash, brush or demo debris needs disposing. Expect to see big trucks and rolling, graded areas rather than a tidy transfer station.
There’s usually an entrance booth and a scale - landfills of this type commonly charge tipping fees by weight, so drivers get weighed in and out. Pull up slowly on the gravel road; heavy equipment and compacted cells are visible and the dumping face can be a short drive from the scale depending on traffic. The site is open and can be dusty in summer or muddy after rain. Weekends, especially during spring cleanup, often have backups.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Cover and tie down loose loads - wind on open lots turns a small mess into a big delay.
- Combine small loads when possible; many city landfills have a minimum charge that makes multiple trips expensive.
- Be ready to unload yourself or have a helper - drop-off is generally self-service and moving bulky items can be awkward without extra hands.
