Dry Creek Landfill
Dry Creek Landfill, 6260 Dry Creek Road, Eagle Point, 97524, Oregon
Dry Creek Landfill on Dry Creek Road in Eagle Point is where locals and haulers bring bigger loads that won’t go out with curbside pickup. It’s the basic, no-frills landfill for household cleanouts and contractor trailers.
The site is a working landfill with open tipping areas, heavy equipment, and unpaved access. There’s a scale/entrance booth area, so loads are weighed and tipping fees are charged by weight; expect to stop at the scale when you come in and again on the way out. Pull up to the booth/scale lane, then follow the traffic flow to the tipping area - trucks and trailers usually back into a pit or mound to dump. Landfills of this size commonly handle commercial loads, though fees and requirements vary by facility and by state.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Tie down and cover loose loads so debris doesn’t fly out while driving and while waiting in line.
- Have gates, tailgates and straps ready to open so dumping goes quickly - big piles are quicker to handle if the load is pre-sorted.
- Avoid busy weekend afternoons if possible; midweek mornings tend to be quieter and less backed up.
