Chautauqua County Landfill

Chautauqua County Landfill, 3889 Towerville Road, Jamestown, 14701, New York

Get Directions

Chautauqua County Landfill at 3889 Towerville Road in Jamestown is the county's main place for burying municipal and larger loads. Neighbors bring everything from household cleanouts to commercial hauls, so the place sees a steady stream of trucks and trailers.

There’s an entrance booth and a scale you’ll drive across - tipping fees are charged by weight, so plan on stopping on the way in and again on the way out. The site is large, with visible piles and heavy equipment working the cells, and traffic can be directed by signs or cones. Pull up to the booth first to be checked in, then follow the flow to the dumping area; expect some walking if the drop point isn’t right next to where you park. Weekends and spring cleanup times get busy, so lines and waiting are common.

Before You Go

  • Have any required municipal permit or proof of residency ready; many upstate towns require one and it speeds the check-in.
  • Secure tarps and loose items before hitting the road - loose debris makes unloading slower and creates extra cleanup time.
  • Plan for delays on weekends or during spring cleanup; arriving earlier in the day usually means shorter waits.
