Lubbock Landfill

Lubbock Landfill is the city landfill out on N Avenue P that people and businesses use when they need to haul trash that can't be dropped at a neighborhood dumpster. It’s the kind of large, open site where stuff is buried rather than processed, and both residential and commercial haulers use places like this.

Expect a big entry with a scalehouse and a scale where loads are weighed and charged by weight at most landfills; plan on stopping twice - once in and once out. Drive up to an attendant booth for check-in, then proceed to the tipping area where trucks and trailers back up and dump. The site itself is primarily open cells and dirt roads, with piles and compacted areas rather than recycling bins and sorting lines. Weekends and spring cleanup times often bring longer lines, so be prepared to wait and have your load secured for the drive in.
