Iredell County Landfill
Iredell County Landfill, 354 Twin Oaks Road, Statesville, 28625, North Carolina
Iredell County Landfill on Twin Oaks Road in Statesville is the county landfill people use for loads that won’t fit in curbside service, from homeowner cleanouts to contractor hauls. County and business trucks show up alongside pickup trailers, so expect a working, no-frills site.
Pull in toward an entrance booth and a scale where vehicles are typically weighed - plan to stop both coming and going. Tipping fees at landfills are generally charged by weight or volume, and commercial loads are commonly accepted but usually carry higher charges. The facility looks industrial: large open cells, heavy equipment moving material, and plenty of room for trucks and trailers. Weekends, especially during spring cleanup, often have lines and longer waits.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Tie down tarps and secure loose items before leaving home so nothing falls off on the road or creates extra cleanup time at the gate.
- Sort bulky items from bagged trash ahead of time to speed up tipping; having things somewhat organized makes the drive-in/drive-out process quicker.
- Try to avoid weekend mornings if possible - midweek or late-afternoon runs usually move faster, while spring cleanup brings the biggest backups.
