It’s a working county landfill with the usual scale and tipping-fee setup; commercial loads are handled here alongside residential ones. Expect a practical, no-frills place - it's meant for burying the stuff that can't go in curbside collection.
Drive up to an entrance booth and a scale - loads are typically weighed so plan to stop on the way in and again on the way out. The site is mostly gravel and dirt roads with large earthen mounds and heavy equipment moving around; trucks and trailers are common. Directions after weighing usually point drivers to the active dumping area where crews or signage guide where to tip. Lines form during weekends and seasonal cleanups, so there can be a bit of waiting if arriving during busy times.
