Small county-level solid waste site just off TX-56 in Whitesboro that locals and small haulers use for household trash, yard clippings and some recyclables. The place looks like a working site rather than a park - trucks, open dumpsters and piles of brush are normal sights. Visitors tend to be residents dropping off loads and pickup drivers making quick runs.
Drive up the long driveway to a gravel/packed-dirt lot and pull into the line by the entrance booth where vehicles check in; larger trucks need a bit more room to swing. There’s usually a scale house nearby, so be ready to stop once or twice during the visit. Recycling bins and yard waste piles are off to the side while trash containers and roll-offs sit closer to the main tipping area. The site is practical and a little dusty-bring a mask if working a dusty load and watch out for backing trucks.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring tie-downs or a tarp for loose loads like brush or bagged leaves; wind can make a mess when driving out.
- Try to avoid mid-morning on Saturdays and spring cleanup weekends - lines can back up and move slowly.
- Park so the cab of your truck faces the exit if possible; it makes the backing and scale check quicker.
