(281) 383-2454This is the Waste Management landfill out on Tri City Beach Road in Baytown, a working landfill where trash is buried and large loads are handled. Locals, contractors, and commercial haulers all use places like this when curbside pickup won’t do the job. In Texas, landfills vary, but these sites typically have scales and tipping fees based on weight.
Drive up to a manned entrance booth and be prepared to stop for a weigh-in; most landfills will have a scale you cross entering and leaving so charges are calculated by weight. The site is large and mostly gravel and dirt roads between cells and finished mounds; big roll-off trucks and trailers are common sights. After the scale you’ll be directed where to dump-follow the traffic flow and look for signs and cones marking active areas. Expect dust on dry days and some mud when it rains, and allow extra time on busy weekends or during community cleanups.
