City of Beaumont Landfill on Lafin Drive is the big city dump-used by Beaumont residents and the trucks that work around town. It's the kind of place people go when a curbside pickup or a convenience center won't cut it. The site has the scale of a municipal landfill, so expect a working, industrial feel rather than anything neat and pretty.
Pull in at 5895 Lafin Drive and you’ll see the entrance booth and a wide drive where pickups and roll-off trucks queue up. There’s usually a scale and a stop before and after tipping, so plan for a short hold while weights are recorded and fees settled. Huge dirt mounds and compactors are visible from the tipping area; drivers will point where to drop loads and traffic flows around the active cells. Weekends and spring cleanup days get busy, and dust and heavy equipment are part of the scene.
