There’s an entrance booth and a lane to pull up, so be prepared to stop and let the attendant direct you. A vehicle scale is typically part of the flow at these sites, meaning vehicles often stop twice - once coming in and again when leaving. The yard is mostly open concrete and dirt with piles or containers for different kinds of material, and traffic can back up at the scales and tipping areas. Weekends and spring clean-up time are noticeably busier, so expect a wait if arriving during peak hours.
