Osage Landfill on County Road 2712 is the local Bartlesville landfill where trash is buried. Residents and commercial haulers both use landfills of this size, and facilities like this typically accept commercial loads. State rules apply and tipping fees are generally charged by weight.

Weekends and spring cleanup periods often bring longer waits, so lines are common then.
