City of Brownsville Landfill

City of Brownsville Landfill is the city dump out on Ruben M Torres Blvd, where household junk and commercial loads get buried. Residents, local haulers and bigger trucks all show up here when things can't be recycled or taken to a convenience center. It’s a working landfill - dusty, loud and clearly not a tidy recycling park.

Pull up to an entrance booth and a scale near the front; sites like this charge by weight so plan to stop and be weighed in and again after dumping. The drive takes vehicles out to the active face, with visible rows of compacted trash, dirt cover, and heavy equipment moving around. Tipping fees are weight-based, and commercial loads are common alongside residential drop-offs. Lines stack up on weekends and during spring cleanup, so expect delays at busy times.
