Republic Services Greenville Landfill on Mauldin Road is the local landfill where household and commercial loads end up for final burial. It's a large, industrial site with heavy equipment operating constantly; tipping fees are charged by weight and the place handles commercial-sized loads.
The site looks like a working quarry - big dirt piles, bulldozers, compactors and plenty of big trucks moving around. Pull up to the entrance booth, drive onto the concrete scale, then you’ll be routed to the active tipping face to unload and weighed again on the way out. Expect dust, noise and the occasional delay; weekends and spring cleanup times are the busiest. Payment is taken after the outbound weigh, so plan on that stop before leaving.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure and tarp loose loads; wind and dust will make a messy load take longer to clean up and can slow the line.
- If running a commercial truck or trailer, have the empty (tare) weight handy - tipping fees are by weight and knowing tare speeds the process.
- Try to avoid weekend mornings and peak spring cleanup days when lines get long; midweek or late afternoons are usually quieter.
