Construction Debris: What You Can (and Can't) Take to the Dump
Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.
Read more →Republic Services Greenwood Farms Landfill is the large county landfill just off FM2767 that handles household and commercial trash for the Tyler area. Locals and small haulers both use it - it’s the kind of place trucks and trailers are built for, not a little drop-off center. Expect a wide open disposal site rather than a tidy transfer station.
Drive up to a gatehouse or attendant booth where incoming loads are typically directed; there’s usually a scale involved so vehicles stop on entry and again on exit. The site is expansive with lined cells and long dirt access roads, piles of compacted material, and heavy equipment working the tips. Commercial loads are commonly accepted at landfills of this size, and tipping fees are generally assessed by weight rather than by load count. Weekends and spring cleanup times often have longer lines, so the line of trucks can stretch back onto the access road.
