Perquimans County Landfill on Perrys Bridge Rd is the county landfill in Belvidere that both residents and commercial haulers use to get rid of big loads. It’s a working landfill - expect gravel drives, large dirt cells and the usual equipment moving around the tipping area.
There’s typically an entrance booth and a scale to stop at; many landfills charge by weight, so be prepared to be weighed and to stop again on the way out. Pull up slowly on the gravel road, listen for directions, and follow signs toward the unloading/tipping area where trucks and trailers back in to dump. The site looks industrial rather than tidy - heavy equipment, dirt piles and a clear working face where loads are delivered. Lines can form, especially on weekends and during seasonal cleanups, so allow extra time.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loose material with a tarp and tie-downs so nothing blows out on the approach or while driving on the site.
- Keep different types of material separated in the truck/trailer ahead of time - it speeds unloading and keeps things moving for the next vehicle.
- Try to come midweek or later in the afternoon if possible; weekends and spring cleanups tend to be the busiest and have the longest waits.
