Pull up to a small entrance booth off Dal Road; many county sites have a scale that gets crossed on the way in and again on the way out. The site is an open yard with large containers and piles for different materials, so be ready to get out of the truck and sort a little. Gravel surfaces and a few lanes to pull into are common, with recycling containers usually off to one side. Weekends and spring-cleanup days tend to back up, so allow extra time if heading over then.
Learn how to properly dispose of common items.
