Greenbelt Landfill

Greenbelt Landfill is the big city dump out on Old Genoa Red Bluff, used by both homeowners hauling a truckload and businesses bringing commercial loads. It's the kind of place where contractors and people doing major cleanouts show up rather than dropping stuff at a small neighborhood center. Expect a working, no-frills landfill rather than anything shiny.

Drive up to an entrance booth and be prepared to stop at a scale - landfills in Texas usually charge by weight, so there's often a weigh-in and a weigh-out. Pull-ups are common: larger trucks will navigate ramps and open bays while smaller vehicles loop through the same drive; traffic can form on weekends. The site is mostly piles, heavy equipment, and compacted cells; signs point to the active dumping area and there are marked lanes for incoming vehicles. Recycling or drop-off bins, if present, tend to sit off to the side near the entrance rather than mixed in with the main landfill face.
