A large municipal landfill on the south side of Lewisville, used by both homeowners cleaning out garages and commercial haulers dumping larger loads. Trucks and trailers are common here, and the place looks like what it is - big dirt piles, compactors, and long rows of cell areas.
Drive up to an entrance booth and be prepared to pull onto a scale - the site charges by weight, so there’s a stop on the way in or out for weighing. After the scale, follow the flow of traffic past signs and active tipping areas; heavy equipment and raised berms are part of the landscape. Commercial loads are handled here alongside residential drop-offs, and traffic can back up during weekends or spring cleanup times. Expect dust, gravel surfaces, and clear sightlines to where trucks are dumping and machinery is compacting.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Cover loads and secure loose material - wind can send debris everywhere and uncovered loads often take longer to clean up.
- Have paperwork or load manifests ready if hauling commercially; commercial haulers move through differently than casual residential drop-offs.
- Avoid weekend mid-mornings if possible; weekday visits or early mornings usually mean shorter lines and faster turns.
