Construction Debris: What You Can (and Can't) Take to the Dump
Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.
Read more →Mullica Twp Landfill on Elwood-Weekstown Rd in Egg Harbor City is the place locals and commercial haulers bring trash that gets buried rather than recycled or transferred. It’s a true landfill - the final resting spot for loads, so expect a working, industrial feel. Big trucks are the norm here; passenger cars can get lost in the scale of the operation.
There’s usually an entrance booth and a scale, so plan on being weighed in and out - fees are commonly charged by weight or a flat tipping fee depending on the load. Pull up to the booth and wait to be directed, then drive to the active tipping area where heavy equipment and dirt mounds are visible. The surface is often gravel or packed dirt and can be dusty; expect slow-moving trucks and the occasional line, especially on weekends or during spring cleanup. Commercial loads are typically treated differently than residential ones, with separate rates and routing.
