J.J. Brunner Landfill

J.J. Brunner Landfill sits on Brunner Road in Zelienople and is where locals and commercial haulers take material that can’t go in curbside pickup. It’s a working landfill-things get buried here rather than recycled on site, so expect a practical, industrial setup.

You'll go past a small entrance booth and a scale; landfills in Pennsylvania typically charge by weight, so plan on a weigh-in and a weigh-out. Pull up to the booth, then follow the traffic flow toward the dumping area - trucks and trailers need space to maneuver. The site is mostly open cells, piles of cover dirt and heavy equipment moving around; dusty in dry weather and muddy after rain. Commercial loads are accepted and are generally handled with a per-weight fee structure different from residential rates.
