Madison County Landfill is the county dump out on Rudisill Road in Marshall, where households and haulers bring trash to be buried. Smaller residential cars and larger commercial trucks both show up here; it's the final stop for anything that's not recycled or specially handled.
Pull up to an entrance booth and be ready to stop at a scale-landfills like this usually charge tipping fees based on weight or volume, so expect a weigh-in and then another stop on the way out. The site is large, with visible mounds of compacted trash and working equipment; traffic moves between the scale/office area and the active cells where loads are emptied. There’s usually a clear flow for dropping off loads and then exiting, and weekends or spring cleanup days tend to get backed up.
