Prince Edward County Sanitary Landfill

Prince Edward County Sanitary Landfill is the county dump off Trashmore Road near Farmville, where local households and haulers bring trash that gets buried. It’s the kind of place people swing by with a truck or a trailer when curbside pickup won’t do.

The site is a working landfill with big open tipping areas and heavy equipment moving around, so watch your mirrors and take it slow. There’s a gate/booth and a scale area to move through; landfills typically assess tipping fees (often structured differently for residential versus commercial loads) and you’ll usually be weighed in and out. Pull up to the booth for directions, then follow the traffic flow to the unloading spot - expect to drive on gravel and past piles of compacted cover dirt. Lines can build up, especially on weekends and during spring cleanups, so plan some extra time.
