Waste Facility
Pueblo of Jemez Public Works Department
5117 NM-4, Jemez Pueblo, NM 87024
(575) 834-7942Pueblo of Jemez Public Works Department runs the local waste drop-off for Jemez Pueblo residents and nearby communities. Located on NM-4, it’s the practical spot locals use when hauling household or yard debris rather than driving to the nearest town.
The site is small and community-focused, with a single entrance off the highway and room to pull up with a truck or trailer. Expect a simple, working-yard feel-gravel or packed dirt surfaces, some fencing or barriers, and places to unload bulky items. Lines can build up on weekends and during seasonal cleanups, so there can be a wait to get to the unload area. Traffic moves slowly, especially if larger vehicles need space to maneuver.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring straps or tarps to keep loose material from blowing out while you drive.
- If hauling a trailer, practice backing up; tight turns and limited space make maneuvering trickier than at big municipal sites.
- Plan for possible waits on weekends or spring cleanup time-arriving midweek usually means fewer vehicles to contend with.
