Kerrville Landfill is the big burial site on Loop 534 that locals and small contractors use to drop off household junk and construction debris. It’s the kind of place hauling trucks and pickups frequent when there’s too much to fit in a curbside bin. The site serves both residential and commercial needs typical for a county landfill in Texas.
Drive in and you'll see the scale house near the entrance where vehicles are weighed and charged by weight - plan for a brief stop coming and going. There’s a paved drive that leads down to the dumping areas with large open cells and dirt berms; dumpsters and recycling areas are usually off to the side. Trucks and trailers maneuver slowly, so watch for backing vehicles and give them room to turn. Lines can form on busy weekends or during yard-cleanup season, so expect some waiting at peak times.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loads with a tarp or straps before leaving home; loose debris is a hassle to manage and can lead to fines elsewhere.
- Bring gloves and eye protection if planning to climb into a load or handle materials-sharp metal and nails are common.
- If hauling a trailer, watch the clearance and turning radius at the entrance and be prepared to wait behind larger trucks that need extra room.
