Wca landfill is the big burial site on E Hardy Road that people and businesses use when regular pickup won’t cut it. Neighbors, contractors, and haulers drop off everything from household bulk junk to construction debris here. It’s the kind of place meant for final disposal, not recycling or quick drop-offs.
There’s a scalehouse near the entrance so expect to slow down and be weighed - most landfills charge tipping fees based on weight. Pull up to the booth, get directed where to go, then head to the working face or cell to unload; traffic can stack up on busy days. The site itself is large and dusty, with compacted areas and trucks coming and going, so keep an eye on where heavy equipment is operating.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loads with a tarp and straps; loose debris can lead to delays and fines at landfill entrances.
- Bring gloves, sturdy shoes, and eye protection - it’s not tidy and there’s sharp or heavy stuff mixed in with the piles.
- Plan to stop at the scale twice - once in and once out - and leave extra time on weekends or during spring cleanup when lines get long.
