Vermillion Landfill
Vermillion Landfill, 31426 Bluff Road, Vermillion, 57069, South Dakota
Vermillion Landfill on Bluff Road (31426 Bluff Road) is the local landfill for Vermillion, South Dakota. Neighbors and local haulers use it to dispose of trash that gets buried rather than recycled or reused.
Expect to stop on a scale - most landfills weigh incoming loads and charge tipping fees by weight; many also have a separate rate structure for commercial loads. There’s usually a small office or booth near the entrance where loads are logged, so pull up slowly and follow the traffic flow to the active dumping area. The site is mostly gravel and compacted dirt with heavy equipment moving around, and it can be dusty or muddy after rain. Weekends and spring-cleanup days tend to back up, so lines are common then.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Write down the address (31426 Bluff Road) and have a map ready - rural GPS pins can be off and the driveway is easy to miss.
- Cover loose or open loads with a tarp so debris doesn’t blow out on the road and unloading goes more smoothly.
- Sort bulky items from general trash before getting out of the vehicle; having things separated usually speeds up where to dump and keeps the visit shorter.
