Greene County Landfill Oper

Greene County Landfill Oper is the county landfill out on Mays Road in Stanardsville, used by local residents, haulers, and businesses bringing trash for final disposal. It’s the place things get buried - big, open cells and heavy equipment moving dirt and compacting loads. People from the county and some commercial haulers stop here rather than hauling into Northern Virginia facilities.

Drive up the access road and you'll see an entrance booth and a vehicle scale; most landfills charge by weight so expect to stop on the scale going in and again on the way out. A transfer area or drop-off pad is usually where vehicles tip, with loaders and compactors working nearby and piles of cover material on hand. The site looks industrial - gravel roads, fenced perimeter, and mounded, lined cells in various stages of use and cover. Weekends and spring cleanup days can get backed up, so there may be a short line of trucks waiting to get weighed and unloaded.
