A small, local disposal site on Route 34 that serves Farmingdale residents and nearby contractors. People drop off household junk, construction debris, and yard waste here; it’s the kind of place locals use when a van or pickup is loaded down and needs to be emptied.
There’s an entrance off NJ-34 with a little booth near the driveway where vehicles stop before driving into the yard. A scale is typical at this type of site, so plan to slow down twice - once to check in and again to weigh out. The yard is mostly open with piles and roll-off containers visible from the drive; recycling or drop-off bins are usually grouped just past the entrance. Weekends, especially in spring, can get busy and cause lineups onto the road.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Have materials loosely sorted before pulling up so unloading goes faster and fewer trips around the yard are needed.
- Secure tarps and loose items in the truck bed or trailer; heavier machines and full bags shift during transport and make unloading slower.
- Try for a weekday mid-morning slot if possible - weekends fill up and long waits are common during seasonal cleanups.
