Klamath County Landfill

801 Old Fort Rd, Klamath Falls, OR 97601

Get Directions

Klamath County Landfill on Old Fort Road is the county landfill in Klamath Falls used by residents, local haulers, and commercial trucks. This is the place where non-recyclable material gets buried. It’s a working site that can get busy, especially on weekends and during spring cleanup season.

Drive in to an entrance booth and a scale; landfills like this charge tipping fees by weight, so expect to be weighed and possibly stopped again on the way out. Pull up to the booth to check in, then follow directions to the active tipping area-there are dirt ramps, large piles, and heavy equipment moving around, so watch where you drive. The site looks like open cells and access roads rather than paved loading docks, and recycling/green-waste drop-offs are often located to the side. Commercial trucks are a regular sight here, so larger loads and longer processing times are common.

Before You Go

  • Secure and tarp loose material before driving in - wind and passing trucks can blow debris onto the road and slow the process.
  • Leave extra time for the scale and unloading, and pull fully off the roadway when waiting so traffic can pass.
  • Sort loads as much as possible beforehand (e.g., wood, metal, mixed debris) to speed unloading; expect the longest waits on weekends and during seasonal cleanups.
