Small county landfill out on RR 1 in Wilber (RR 1, Wilber, NE 68465) used by local residents, farmers and haulers. Short drive from town, it’s the place people head when junk, brush or construction debris needs to go away.
A gravel approach leads to an entrance area where you’ll see a scale and an entrance booth typical of landfills; expect to be weighed on the way in or out since tipping fees are commonly charged by weight. After weighing, follow the access road to the active dumping area - lots of dirt, compacted cells and piles of brush or demo material. Tipping fees are usually structured by weight or by load, and commercial loads are normally handled and billed differently. Weekends and spring-cleanup times tend to build up traffic, so plan extra time if it’s a busy day.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Tie down or tarp loose loads before leaving home; windy days will scatter trash and make unloading take longer.
- Sort materials ahead of time-separate brush, metal and bulky items from mixed household trash to speed the drop-off process.
- Aim for midweek or early morning to avoid weekend lines, especially during spring cleanup season.
