Green Ridge RDF in Gansevoort is the local spot for dropping household and small commercial trash. Locals and haulers come here rather than hauling farther into the region. The site looks like a working yard more than a clean retail operation.
Drive up Peters Road and pull into the lot; there’s an entrance booth near the front where traffic is funneled. The yard opens into a gravel/asphalt area with large containers and a tipping pad visible from the approach. Vehicles often line up on weekends and during spring cleanup, so expect some waiting if it’s busy. Signage and painted lanes guide where to pull in and where to unload.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring a photo ID or proof of residency-local facilities commonly ask for it at the booth.
- Secure loose trash and cover loads so nothing blows out while waiting in line or driving through the yard.
- Try to visit midweek or early in the morning to avoid the longer lines that form on weekends and during seasonal cleanups.
