Waste Management Suburban Landfill on State Route 668 in Heath is the kind of big, open landfill where trash gets buried. Locals and haulers use it; landfills of this scale typically have a weigh scale and charge tipping fees by weight, and many also accept commercial loads.
There’s usually an entrance booth and a drive-on scale, so expect to stop on the way in and again on the way out since charges are commonly calculated by weight. The site looks like large dirt mounds and open cells with wide access roads for trucks; backing up to a drop-off area is normal. Parking or staging is generally near the entrance so vehicles can unload in turn. Keep things sorted beforehand because recyclables or bulky items are often handled separately and that speeds the whole visit.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure and tarp any loose material before hitting State Route 668-nothing worse than debris blowing off on the drive in.
- Sort loads roughly into trash, big items, and recyclables so unloading goes faster and there’s less fumbling at the drop-off.
- Expect weekend and spring-cleanup crowds; arrive earlier in the day and allow extra time for the scale in/out process.
