Humbert Refuse Landfill

Humbert Refuse Landfill is the local burial site a few miles out on Gerking Flat Road, listed under an Athena address but serving Milton‑Freewater area residents and haulers. People use it when curbside won’t take something or for larger cleanouts and contractor loads. It’s a straightforward, working landfill - not a drop-off center with frills.

The site looks like exposed dirt cells, compacted piles and heavy equipment moving about; it’s what a working landfill normally looks like. Most landfills have a scale and charge tipping fees by weight, so vehicles are often weighed in and weighed out. Pull up, get your load ready, then drive to the dumping area - some shuffling between spots is common. Commercial loads are commonly accepted at landfills and usually follow a different fee structure than residential loads.
