American Environmental Landfill

American Environmental Landfill, 212 N. 177th W. Avenue, Sand Springs, 74063, Oklahoma

American Environmental Landfill on N. 177th W. Avenue is the landfill in Sand Springs where residents and contractors haul household junk and construction debris. Trucks and pickups both show up here; the place looks industrial, with heavy equipment shaping dirt and compacted piles. It’s the sort of site used for bulky cleanouts and contractor loads.

There’s a gate booth and a scale-tipping fees are generally tied to weight, so loads are weighed before charges are assessed. Pull up to the booth and then follow the traffic pattern; large dumping cells and heavy machinery operate across the site, so give operators room. The ground gets dusty in dry weather and muddy after rain, with big piles rather than tidy bins. Expect busier periods on weekends and during spring-cleanup times when lines can back up.

Before You Go

  • Secure and tarp loose loads so wind or passing trucks don’t scatter debris while driving or unloading.
  • Bring someone to spot when backing into a dump area; visibility is limited around large equipment and piles.
  • Be ready for the weighing process and try to batch similar items together so unloading goes faster and traffic keeps moving.
