Dumas Landfill

1899 S Maddox Ave, Dumas, TX 79029

(806) 935-2636

Dumas Landfill is the city landfill on S Maddox Ave, used by local residents and commercial haulers who need to get rid of large amounts of trash. It’s the kind of place people go when pickup won’t cut it and trucks or trailers are loaded down for the last stop.

There’s a scale at the entrance so loads are weighed and tipping fees are charged by weight or load type; expect to stop on the way in and again on the way out. The site is large and open - long drive lanes, dirt and gravel surfaces, and the tipping face where material gets buried. Pull up to the entrance booth/scale area first, then follow staff directions for where to unload; commercial trucks are commonly seen there alongside residential pickups. Lines can form, especially on weekends or during seasonal cleanups, so plan for some wait time.

Before You Go

  • Make sure the truck or trailer can back up and dump - the dump area is not a tight maneuver and some trailers need extra room.
  • Keep loads covered and secure for the drive in; loose debris makes unloading slower and can blow out on the road.
  • Try a weekday morning if possible to avoid the longer weekend queues that happen during spring cleanup and after storms.
