Stony Hollow Landfill

Stony Hollow Landfill is Dayton’s primary burial site for municipal trash and commercial loads that need final disposal. Locals, roofers, landscapers and the occasional neighbor with a big cleanout use it when curbside options won't do. It’s a working landfill on South Gettysburg Avenue, not a drop-off for every kind of material but built for large, heavy loads.

Drive up to a small entrance booth where attendants will direct traffic toward the scales; this place charges by weight, so expect to stop on the scale both coming in and going out. There’s a clear route from the scale to the tipping area and then back out, with the landfill face and heavy equipment clearly visible as you approach. The site handles large commercial trucks as well as smaller vehicles, and tipping fees are structured around vehicle type and/or weight rather than a flat per-item charge. Lines build up on weekends and during spring cleanup, so patience and space to queue are useful.
