Waste Management - Coastal Plains Landfill

21000 Hwy 6, Alvin, TX 77511

(281) 388-1708

A large regional landfill out on Hwy 6 that handles final disposal for municipal and commercial haulers. People drop off construction debris, yard waste, and bulky household items here; it’s the kind of place contractors and homeowners use when curbside won’t cut it.

Drive up to a guarded entrance with a scale house; loads are usually weighed so expect to stop twice - once in and once out. The site is big and mostly dirt and compacted cells, with piles and heavy equipment visible from the road. There’s a clear traffic flow to the tipping face where trucks dump; then they usually circle back to the scale before exiting. Watch for signage for lanes and slow-moving equipment; trucks and loaders are moving around, and blow-around debris can be common on windy days.

Before You Go

  • Bring a tarp or secure your load well - loose debris can spill and will slow unloading.
  • If hauling a mixed load, position the truck so it can back easily to the tipping face; tight turns can be a pain with a trailer.
  • Expect truck traffic and limited places to turn around outside the site, so plan approach from the main highway side rather than side streets.
