J Bar J Landfill is the local landfill on Road 770 near Ogallala - the place people bring household trash, bulky items, and loads from small contractors. It has a rural, practical feel and mainly serves residents and haulers from the surrounding area. This is a final-disposal landfill where materials are buried rather than processed on site.
Many landfills have a scale and an entrance booth, so be prepared to stop to be weighed and given directions; tipping fees are typically charged based on weight or vehicle type. Signs usually point to the active dumping area, and the lot itself is often gravel or dirt with open tipping spots and covered fill cells. Expect dust in dry weather and mud after rain - bring a vehicle that can handle unpaved ground. Commercial loads are generally accepted at facilities like this, often under a different fee structure than residential drops.
