The City of Okmulgee Landfill sits out on South 270 Road in Morris and is where local households and haulers bring anything that won't go in the regular pickup. Heavy loads from contractors show up alongside pickup-truck runs from neighbors doing cleanup. Expect a working, no-frills site rather than a tidy recycling center.
There’s usually a scale and tipping fees set by weight at landfills like this, so plan for a weigh-in as part of the visit. Pull up to the entrance area and follow the gravel drive toward the active cell; look for an intake/booth area where vehicles stop before heading to the dumping spot. The property typically looks like open dirt cells, cover soil piles, and occasional big trucks and loaders moving material around. Weekends and spring cleanups can build a line, and the road can get rough or muddy after rain.
