Get Directions

Salem County Sanitary Landfill in Alloway is the county landfill where residents and haulers drop off material that will be buried. It’s a large, active site used by homeowners doing cleanouts and by commercial trucks hauling loads from around the county.

There’s a scale/scale house at the entrance where vehicles stop to be weighed; tipping fees are typically charged by weight at the scale or by load, as is common for landfills. Pull up to the booth to check in, then follow the internal road to the working face where trucks tip-expect gravel roads, heavy equipment, and the layered mounds of compacted material and cover. Lines build up on weekends and during spring cleanups, so be prepared for a bit of waiting during busy periods.

Before You Go

  • Secure and tarp loose loads before getting to the site so debris doesn’t blow out while driving and unloading goes faster.
  • If coming with commercial loads, have business credentials and load paperwork handy since landfills of this type often bill or record commercial hauls differently than residential drops.
  • Plan for possible wait time: midweek or later mornings usually move quicker than early weekend hours, and keep an eye out for heavy equipment when maneuvering in the tipping area.
