A working dump in northeast Las Vegas used by homeowners, contractors and anyone hauling a load to get rid of. The site feels like a neighborhood transfer point-busy during cleanups and quiet midday on weekdays. Expect a straightforward, no-frills place where the desert heat and dust are part of the experience.
Pull up to an entrance lane and be prepared to stop at a small booth or scale area; most loads are handled individually so vehicles move through one at a time. There are large open bays and roll-off containers spread across a gravel lot, with traffic flowing to different drop points depending on the load. Keep an eye out for loose gravel and dust when backing trailers; visibility can get dusty on windy days. Lines build up on weekends and during seasonal cleanouts, so plan extra time if it’s busy.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring strong gloves and closed-toe shoes-surfaces are rough and there’s loose debris everywhere.
- Secure loads before driving in; loose material can blow off on the way and makes unloading harder.
- If hauling a trailer, practice backing into tight spots ahead of time and go slow-there are big trucks moving around.
