Landfill

Waste Management - Skyline Landfill

1201 north central ave, Ferris, TX 75125

(972) 842-5886

A working landfill on the north side of Ferris that handles neighborhood cleanouts and heavier commercial hauls. Locals and contractors both use it when trash needs to be buried rather than recycled or hauled off-site.

Expect a big, open site with piles of cover soil and compacted ridges visible from the entrance. There’s an entrance booth and a scale area - like most landfills, tipping fees are charged and are typically assessed by weight or volume, so vehicles usually stop to be weighed. Drive up to the booth, follow the signs or attendants toward the drop-off pad, unload where directed, then go back over the scale on the way out. The site looks industrial: heavy equipment, dirt roads, and fenced perimeter, so bring a vehicle that can handle rough surfaces.

Before You Go

  • Secure loads with tarps and straps - loose stuff can blow out on the drive and slow things down.
  • Aim for weekdays or early mornings to avoid long lines; Saturdays and spring cleanup times tend to be busiest.
  • If hauling for a business or with a trailer, have any required business paperwork or manifests handy since commercial loads are commonly accepted and may be handled differently than household bags.
