Construction Debris: What You Can (and Can't) Take to the Dump
Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.

Farmers, contractors and anyone with a big haul bring loads here; it’s the place where trash actually gets buried rather than dropped off at a convenience center.
There’s a weigh scale and an entrance booth near the road, so expect to slow down and stop to be weighed - tipping fees are charged by weight. After the scale, pull up to the unloading area or active cell where crews or equipment will move things into the working face; the site is large with visible dirt mounds and compacted areas. Commercial trucks are accepted, and commercial loads are handled like residential ones but charged according to weight. Weekends and days after big yard cleanups or storms can get backed up, so lines at the gate aren’t uncommon.
