City of Corsicana Landfill

City of Corsicana Landfill on Jester Drive is the city dump where household and commercial trash gets buried. Locals hauling big cleanup loads and commercial haulers use this site; it’s overseen by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality and, like much of Texas, facilities can be spaced a good distance apart.

Drive in and there’s typically a scale house near the entrance where vehicles stop to be weighed; tipping fees at landfills are generally charged by weight, so expect to be weighed in and out. After weighing, proceed to the active cell or unloading area-look for dirt ramps, compacted piles, and heavy equipment moving around. The surface is often gravel and dusty, and loose material can blow if not covered. Weekends and spring cleanup times tend to be busiest, so lines and wait times are common.
