A county solid waste site just outside Grove that locals use for household trash, yard cleanups and the occasional large haul. Most folks here are residents dropping off bags, brush or things from a small renovation. It feels like a working county yard rather than a retail place.
Drive in on a gravel road to a fenced compound with a small entrance booth and open tipping areas; county sites in Oklahoma often have those basic features. There’s usually space to pull up beside a drop-off pit or roll-off, with piles and containers visible from the drive. Traffic picks up on weekends and during spring cleanup or after storms, so expect a line then. Watch for signs or cones directing traffic flow and keep clear of heavy equipment moving around.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring help and a truck ramp or strong straps for heavy items; some drops require lifting or maneuvering into a bin.
- Sort brush, metal and bulky items at home so unloading goes faster and fewer trips are needed.
- Aim for midweek mornings if possible - smaller lines than weekend afternoons, especially during yard-cleaning season or after severe weather.
