Sooner Landfill
Sooner Landfill, 36339 E. West 127, Wewoka, 74884, Oklahoma
Sooner Landfill is the out‑of‑town dump on E. West 127 just outside Wewoka. Locals, contractors and pickup drivers bring everything from household junk to construction debris here. It’s a true landfill - trash gets buried rather than recycled on site.
Drive up a gravel lane to a small entrance area with a scale - tipping fees at landfills like this are typically charged by weight, so expect to stop to be weighed. The property is open and dusty with dirt berms and large piles; heavy equipment and dump trucks move around. Commercial trucks are common at sites this size and many landfills use a tiered fee structure for commercial loads. Lines can form during weekends and seasonal cleanups, so plan for a short wait at the gate.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loads with a tarp and tie‑downs; loose debris blows out on the drive and creates hassle for everyone.
- Sort bulky items beforehand (metal, appliances, clean lumber) to speed unloading and avoid extra trips through the scale area.
- Bring a plan for timing - weekends and spring cleanup draw crowds, so aim for a weekday morning if possible.
