Durant Solid Waste is the local spot in Durant where residents drop off regular household trash, recycling and yard debris. Most people from the city and nearby rural areas use it when doing cleanups or small construction projects, and it sits just off NE 2nd Avenue so it’s easy to find.
Pull up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop so someone or something can check your load; many solid waste sites have a vehicle scale at the entrance and exit so expect to pause. The property is open air with piles or containers for different materials-recycling bins and yard-waste piles are usually grouped together a short drive past the booth. Weekends, especially in spring or after storms, get busy and traffic can back up onto the access road, so there’s often a line of pickup trucks and trailers waiting.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loads with tarps or straps so nothing blows out while driving and so unloading is quicker.
- Sort trash, recyclables and yard waste before getting there so it’s easy to put things in the right places once inside.
- Go earlier in the morning on weekends or right after typical work hours to avoid the longest lines during seasonal cleanups or after severe weather.
