Northeast Sanitary Landfill

Northeast Sanitary Landfill on Westvaco Road is the Eastover spot where household trash and bigger hauls get buried. Locals drop off pickup loads while commercial trucks roll through with heavier material, so expect a working, industrial feel.

There’s a weigh scale and an entrance booth before you head to the dumping area - they charge tipping fees by weight or volume, so vehicles usually weigh in and out. Traffic can back up on weekends or during seasonal cleanups; plan for a short wait if it’s busy. The site is mostly gravel and dirt roads with large earthen cells and piles of cover soil; it can be dusty in dry weather and muddy after rain. Drivers pull up, check with the attendant at the booth, then proceed to the active cell to unload and return to the scale for final weighing.
