(877) 275-6773

A local community waste disposal site run by Nebraska Public Power District in McCook, used mostly by town residents and nearby farmers. It handles everyday household and farm-related loads for people hauling trash, branches, and other routine cleanups.

Drive up to a clear entrance where there is typically a booth/scale setup at these kinds of facilities, so expect to pause while you’re checked in. The yard looks like a working site-large open pads, piles of material, and a few roll-off containers or compacting areas. Trucks and trailers pull up to drop loads straight into piles or containers, and traffic can bottleneck on weekends and during spring cleanup. Signage and painted lanes usually guide where to pull up and where recyclables or bulky items sit, but bring patience for waiting in line.

Before You Go

  • Cover and secure loads before coming in; loose trash and broom-clean trailer beds make unloading quicker and safer.
  • Sort anything recyclable or reusable at the truck so it can be dropped off separately rather than shuffled around on site.
  • Avoid the busiest times like weekend mornings or spring cleanup weekends if possible, since lines and wait times get long.
