Dump
Clark Junk Collection & Dumpster Rental LLC
11 S 3rd Ave, Highland Park, NJ 08904
(732) 819-5496Small, neighborhood dump on S 3rd Ave that Highland Park residents and local contractors use for routine drop-offs. The yard is compact compared with county facilities, so expect a tighter layout and more maneuvering for bigger trucks.
The entrance has a little booth and a vehicle scale tucked near the gate; many local dumps have those, so be ready to pause and reposition. Pull up slowly - the drive lanes are narrow and there isn’t a lot of room to swing a long trailer. Piles and bins are close together and the overall footprint feels like a working yard rather than a wide-open disposal field. Weekends and spring cleanups tend to be the busiest times, so lines can form at the gate.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring something to cover loose loads - wind can send debris around in the tighter yard.
- Position the truck so backing is minimal; tight lanes and nearby bins make reversing tricky with trailers.
- Have paperwork and ID handy at the booth to speed things up; anything that slows the gate sequence will hold up the line.
