Hemingford Solid Waste Collection Site sits out on Rd 70 and is the spot most Hemingford residents and local haulers use for household trash, recycling and yard waste. It’s a small, practical county-style site rather than a large commercial transfer station. Expect pickup loads, trailers and the kind of straightforward, outdoor setup common to rural Nebraska towns.
The site feels like a basic outdoor lot with room to pull up, unload and move on; gravel surfaces and large roll-off containers or piles are typical. There may be an entrance point or booth and sometimes a scale, with fees set locally-many small sites charge by weight or per load. Drive in slowly, queue if there’s a line, then pull forward to the area marked for the material being dropped off. Weekends and spring-cleanup periods get the busiest, so plan for a wait during those times.
