Keystone Sanitary Landfill

249 Dunham Dr, Dunmore, PA 18512

(570) 343-5782

Keystone Sanitary Landfill is the big burial site out on Dunham Drive that handles the area's trash - mostly used by haulers and businesses, but residents with larger loads sometimes come through. It’s the kind of place where trucks and roll-offs are common, and the site feels industrial rather than tidy park-like.

Drive in past an entrance booth and you'll see a weigh scale; landfills charge tipping fees based on weight, so expect to stop to get weighed. There’s usually a clear drive lane for trucks to pull up to the disposal area and then back onto the scale to get an exit weight. The property looks expansive with dirt-covered cells and heavy equipment moving material, not like a small drop-off; traffic can back up during busy weekends or seasonal cleanups. Commercial loads are commonly accepted at landfills of this scale, though exact policies and fees can differ by county.

Before You Go

  • Bring a tarp or tie-downs for loose material so nothing blows off while driving - trucks get inspected visually as they enter.
  • Leave extra time on weekends or in spring/leaf season; queues at the scale or entrance booth are the usual hold-up.
  • Separate hazardous or unusual items at the truck beforehand; mixing them in can create delays when staff visually inspect loads.
