Charles M Hinton Jr Regional Landfill

Charles M Hinton Jr Regional Landfill, 3175 Elm Grove Road, Rowlett, 75089, Texas

Charles M Hinton Jr Regional Landfill in Rowlett is the regional landfill out on Elm Grove Road where trash and larger loads end up being buried. Locals and haulers use it when curbside pickup won’t cut it - it’s the kind of place meant for big, final disposal.

You'll drive up to a scale and an entrance booth; regional landfills like this charge tipping fees by weight, so plan on being weighed. Pull up to the booth, get directed to the unloading area, and then usually go back over the scale on the way out. The site itself is big and industrial-looking - gravel drives, berms, and piles in the distance, with clear lanes for trucks and smaller vehicles. Weekends and spring-cleanup times tend to have lines, so expect some waiting if it’s busy.

Before You Go

  • Cover and secure loose loads before you leave home; wind and passing trucks can make a mess if something comes loose.
  • Sort what can be separated ahead of time (bulky pieces versus bagged trash) so unloading goes faster and moves the line along.
  • If hauling commercial quantities, be prepared for a weight-based fee structure and extra time for paperwork or processing compared with a simple homeowner drop-off.
