Small county drop-off used by La Luz and surrounding rural residents. A basic convenience center where people bring household trash, recyclables and yard debris rather than hauling it into town. Expect a low-key, utilitarian site rather than a staffed transfer station.
Drive up to a gravel lot with several large roll-off style containers and smaller recycling bins; lanes are simple so pull up to the container you need. Many of these centers are lightly staffed or self-serve, so plan to sort materials before getting there. There’s usually a small booth or sign marking the entrance, but it’s not a place with lots of amenities. Weekends, especially during spring cleanup, can get a bit backed up.
