Waste Facility
North Platte Public Service Department
1402 N Jeffers St, North Platte, NE 69101
(308) 535-6706A small municipal drop-off used by North Platte residents and farmers hauling everyday trash and cleanup loads. The place handles the town's local disposal needs and gets busy when everyone decides to do yard or barn cleanouts.
Drive up to a clearly marked entrance and be ready for a little traffic on weekends and during spring cleanup. There is a drive-up booth/scale area where vehicles pause - expect to stop there and again after unloading if the site uses weight-based charges. The lot is mostly paved with a handful of bays and compacted piles; larger trucks and trailers can maneuver but watch for tight turns. Lines form at peak times, so patience is part of the visit.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loads with tarps or straps so nothing blows out while driving and unloading.
- Have the truck or trailer arranged so dumping is quick - unload heavy items toward the rear for easier tipping.
- Plan for delays on weekends and during spring; arriving earlier in the day usually means a shorter wait.
