OCEAN COUNTY LANDFILL

Fairbanks Ave, Manchester Township, NJ 08759

Get Directions

Ocean County Landfill on Fairbanks Ave is Manchester Township’s local landfill where bulky residential and commercial trash gets buried. Trucks, local haulers and residents use it; the place is hard to miss once the heavy equipment and dirt mounds come into view.

Expect to stop at a scale/entrance booth area-landfills like this typically charge tipping fees by weight, so most vehicles get weighed in and out. The yard feels industrial: dirt roads, graded cells and big piles of compacted fill with loaders and trucks moving around. Follow the flow of traffic or where other drivers are pulling up for dumping; larger commercial loads are common and the site handles heavy vehicles. It’s not a tidy recycling center-think big machinery, dusty lanes and a practical, working landscape.

Before You Go

  • Secure tarps and loose items before getting to the gate-being weighed in and out means anything loose can fall and slow the process.
  • Avoid weekend afternoons and peak spring cleanup days if possible; lines at the scale can back up and add a lot of extra time.
  • Have trailers hooked up and loads easy to access before entering-unloading goes faster when nothing needs re-tying or rearranging at the scale.
