Nottoway County Sanitary Landfill
Nottoway County Sanitary Landfill - Blackstone, 349 Livestock Road, Blackstone, 23824, Virginia
Nottoway County Sanitary Landfill on Livestock Road is the county landfill serving Blackstone and nearby towns. This is the final place where trash gets buried, used by both residents and commercial haulers. State environmental agencies regulate these sites and tipping fees can vary by location.
Pull off Livestock Road into an entrance with an attendant booth and a vehicle scale; many users stop to be weighed before and after dumping. The site is a large open dirt lot with piles of cover soil and an active tipping face, so it can be dusty when dry and muddy after rain. Give trucks plenty of room to maneuver - backing or pulling through is common. Expect lines on weekends and during spring cleanup, so allow extra time.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure tarps and straps tightly; loose debris will blow or spill and slow everyone down.
- Position the truck so it can back up or pull through without having to shuffle other vehicles; large rigs need extra clearance.
- Bring basic tools like gloves, a shovel and a broom to shift or clean up loads-it speeds things along if material doesn't dump cleanly.
