Construction Debris: What You Can (and Can't) Take to the Dump
Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.

There’s an entrance booth and a scale, so plan for a quick weigh-in and weigh-out - tipping fees are charged by weight rather than per load. The site feels big and industrial: dusty dirt roads, piles of compacted material, and heavy equipment working the cells. Commercial trucks are commonly handled at landfills like this, so expect to see flatbeds and roll-off trucks alongside pickup trucks. Lines build up on weekends and during spring cleanup, so vehicle queues and slower unloading are common then.
