Whitney Solid Waste Collection Site

Old Hwy 20, Whitney, NE 69367

(308) 432-4245

Whitney Solid Waste Collection Site is the small-town disposal spot on Old Hwy 20 that folks from Whitney and the nearby ranches use for household trash, yard clippings and basic recycling. People drop by with pickup loads, trailers or bags when they need to get rid of everyday junk or do a spring cleanup.

The site sits at the edge of town and feels compact rather than industrial-think a few roll-off containers and recycling bins rather than a big transfer station. Many small county sites have a little entrance point or booth and a scale, so be ready to stop and sort things before pulling into the drop area. Maneuvering can be tight, especially if a couple trucks are unloading at once, and the ground can be dusty or muddy depending on the weather. Weekends and spring cleanup time are the busiest, so plan around that if possible.

Before You Go

  • Sort recyclables, yard waste and trash at home so unloading goes quickly once on site.
  • Bring extra hands, gloves and straps for bulky items; tight spaces make moving mattresses, furniture or branches a two-person job.
  • Secure loose loads for the drive in and expect a short wait on weekends-arriving with items accessible saves time.
