Angelina County Waste Management Center on FM 58 is the county site locals use for household trash and routine cleanups. Residents from Lufkin and the nearby rural communities bring brush, old furniture, and general household junk here. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality oversees facilities like this, and it’s a working, no-frills place rather than a tidy public park.
There’s an entrance booth and a scale, so plan to slow down and stop more than once while moving through. Pull into the entrance lane and follow the traffic flow; there are usually pull-up spots for unloading. The ground is mostly gravel or packed dirt and the site is open, so wind can scatter loose items if they aren’t secured. Be ready for lines on weekends and during spring cleanup season-waits can get long.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Cover and tie down loads before leaving home-wind on FM roads will toss loose trash if it’s not secured.
- Consolidate projects into one trip when possible; distances between facilities in this part of Texas make extra runs a hassle.
- Bring sturdy gloves, a tarp, and an extra pair of hands-unloading and sorting moves a lot faster with help.
