Southern Plains Landfill
Southern Plains Landfill, 3198 County Street 2910, Ninnekah, 73067, Oklahoma
Southern Plains Landfill sits off County Street 2910 just outside Ninnekah. It's the local place where household trash and larger hauls end up buried, used by residents with pickup loads and by commercial haulers bringing bigger loads.
Drive in and the site looks big - wide gravel drives, dirt cells, and heavy equipment moving around. Near the entrance there is typically a scale and a small booth; landfills of this scale commonly use a tipping-fee system based on weight. Pull up slowly and be ready to be directed to a dumping spot, and plan for a second weigh if they charge by weight. Expect commercial trucks coming and going, so watch for backing vehicles and keep to the traffic flow.

Before You Go
- Cover loads with a tarp and secure straps - windy days make loose debris a real nuisance on the drive in and out.
- Sort similar items before getting to the gate so unloading goes faster; grouping materials saves time at the tipping area.
- Avoid weekend middays and spring-cleanup times if possible, those are when lines tend to build and the yard gets busy.
