San Angelo Landfill

This is the main landfill out past the Old Ballinger Highway that people take household trash and construction debris to. Locals and small contractors both use it, since landfills are where loads end up buried. It's a fairly large site for this part of town, so expect truck traffic and open cells visible from the road.

There’s an entrance booth and a scale you’ll drive over - tipping fees are handled by weight or by a posted fee schedule at similar facilities, so plan on stopping twice if the scale is used. Pull up to the unloading area after the booth; dumping areas and working faces are spread out, with dirt mounds and compacted areas nearby. The place looks industrial: heavy equipment moving around, dusty drives, and piles of covered material; lines form on weekends and during seasonal cleanups.
