Read more →Shenandoah County Landfill is the county landfill out on Landfill Road in Edinburg, used by local residents and commercial haulers hauling final-disposal loads. It’s the kind of place people bring the stuff that can’t go in the curbside bin and contractors drop off commercial loads for burial.
Drive up to a small entrance booth and be prepared to stop-there’s usually a scale involved so vehicles will be weighed. After the booth, traffic typically funnels toward the active tipping area where trucks pull up to dump and move aside for compactors; you’ll see large covered mounds and roll-off areas nearby. Tipping fees are normally charged by weight at county landfills, and commercial loads are commonly accepted at facilities like this, though exact fees and rules vary. Lines can form, especially on weekends and during spring cleanup, so plan for a short wait at busier times.
