Dump
Alger Dump
2501-3499 Township Rd 92, Alger, OH 45812
Small county dump out on Township Road 92 used by local residents and small haulers. Quiet spot on weekdays but sees a steady stream of pickups and trailers, especially in spring and on weekends.
A single entry lane with a small booth and a place to pull over for instructions is common at facilities like this, so be ready to slow down when approaching. A scale is usually nearby and vehicles often stop there once or twice during their visit; loads are commonly charged by weight at county dumps. The site itself is open and utilitarian - gravel drives, piles of brush or general refuse, and a few concrete areas for dropping different kinds of material. Lines can form on weekend mornings, and drivers often back trailers up to a drop point or drive forward to an unloading pit depending on the load.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loads with straps or tarps before arriving; loose debris can get messy and hold up the line.
- Sort bulky items and separate recyclables or metal ahead of time to speed up unloading.
- Try for a weekday or later in the afternoon to avoid the weekend rush when possible.
