Charles City Landfill

Charles City Landfill is the county landfill out on Chambers Road in Charles City, VA, used by locals and haulers for dropping off bulky trash and larger loads. It’s a big, no-frills place where trucks and trailers are the norm and lots get buried on-site.

There’s an entrance booth and a scale; vehicles are typically weighed on the way in and again on the way out, since tipping fees are generally charged by weight and by material type. Pull up to the booth to check in, then follow the signs or attendant directions to the tipping area where compacted cells and working faces are visible. The driveways are mostly gravel and can get dusty in dry weather or muddy after rain, and large trucks and heavy equipment move around the site. Expect to position your vehicle for a quick unload and then head back over the scale before leaving.
