Disposal Site
Burns-Hines Disposal Site
Burns-Hines Disposal Site, 53206 Monroe Lane, Burns, 97720, Oregon
Burns-Hines Disposal Site on Monroe Lane is the local drop-off most people from Burns and the surrounding ranch country use for loads that won’t fit curbside. It’s the kind of place neighbors use for household junk and yard cleanup rather than a polished recycling center.
The site is a no-frills outdoor yard with a small entrance booth and gravel drives leading into open tipping areas. Pull up to the booth at the front, then follow the lanes toward the piles and roll-off containers. Many disposal sites have a scale, so if fees are by weight expect to stop again on the way out. Ground is usually dusty and there are large trucks and equipment moving around, so leave room to maneuver.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Tarp and secure loose loads - wind and passing trucks can blow debris off open trailers.
- Sort the load into obvious groups (loose trash versus large, awkward items) before pulling up so unloading goes faster.
- Have someone to help spot when backing a trailer on the gravel; also have payment ready and be prepared to stop at a scale if required.
