A no-frills community dump off James Road where locals drop household and yard refuse. Neighbors, landscapers and anyone clearing out a garage or yard haul stuff here rather than trying to squeeze it into curbside pickup.
Drive in and pull up to a small entrance booth/scale area; this kind of place often uses weight to determine charges, so expect to stop there both coming and going. The site itself is open with piles or containers for different types of material and a rough gravel yard for backing up vehicles. Weekends and spring clean-up days get busy, so lines at the booth and slow-moving trucks are common.

Before You Go
- Tie down tarps and secure loose items before leaving the truck so stuff doesn’t blow out while waiting in line.
- Load things in the truck so similar materials are grouped together; it speeds unloading and keeps multiple trips to different piles to a minimum.
- Bring work gloves, sturdy shoes, and a flashlight if arriving near dusk-the ground can be uneven and material edges are sharp.
