Dumpsters Unlimited on Sledge Road is the local dump people from Christiana use for household cleanouts and routine trash runs. Short drive from town and easy to spot from the road, it handles the kind of loads neighbors bring when clearing out attics or doing a yard project.
Pull in and find an entrance point with a small booth area where traffic funnels through before the drop-off zone. The site is mostly open with large roll-off containers and concrete pads, so expect a gravel drive and the usual dust and smell on windy days. Vehicles of all sizes come through, from pickup trucks to small trailers, and lines can back up on weekend mornings and during spring cleanup. Bring a plan for where items will go in the truck so unloading is quick and keeps traffic moving.

Before You Go
- Bring straps or a tarp to secure loose trash in the truck so nothing blows out on the way home.
- Try going on a weekday or later in the afternoon to avoid the weekend rush and long waits.
- Have heavy items near the tailgate and a friend to help lift-it makes unloading faster and safer.
