Region 2000 Regional Landfill in Rustburg is the big regional dump where both household pickups and contractor trucks go to bury trash. It handles large volumes, so expect industrial-scale operations rather than a small transfer station. Visitors will notice scales, heavy equipment, and the usual gravel roads leading into the site.
There’s a weigh scale and an entry booth where vehicles are directed to pull up and get weighed; tipping fees are based on weight, so stopping twice - in and out - is normal. The site is expansive with large dirt or gravel areas, dozers or loaders moving material, and piles of cover soil or compacted refuse visible from the entrance. Traffic can back up at busy times, especially weekends and spring cleanups, so lines are common. Follow the site traffic flow and take care when maneuvering around larger trucks and equipment.
