Milan City Landfill
Milan City Landfill, Gold Medal Road, Milan, 38358, Tennessee
Milan City Landfill on Gold Medal Road in Milan, Tennessee is the municipal landfill for the area. Local residents and commercial haulers bring household trash, cleanouts and larger business loads here. It looks like a working landfill-big compacted cells and room for trucks to move around.
There’s typically a small scale and entrance booth where vehicles are weighed, so tipping fees are charged by weight or load type. Pull up toward the active disposal area and be ready to back up on uneven ground and loose gravel when unloading. The site handles commercial traffic, so expect larger trucks and occasional delays. Around the working face there are mounds of dirt and compacted material with heavy equipment operating nearby.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Tie down and cover loose loads well; wind and passing vehicles can scatter debris quickly.
- Stage bulky items on the truck for quick unloading so the stop doesn’t take longer than necessary.
- Try to go weekday mornings if possible-weekends and spring cleanup season usually mean longer lines.
