City of Charleston Landfill

City of Charleston Landfill is the municipal landfill for Charleston, West Virginia, where larger residential cleanouts and contractor loads end up being buried. Locals who haul bulky trash, construction debris, or yard waste use it when curbside pickup won’t do. As a full-scale landfill, facilities like this generally have a tipping-fee structure and commonly accept commercial loads.

Drive up to a gate and a small scale/weigh station area where vehicles stop to be weighed; expect to roll back over the scale after dumping. The site is roomy with gravel drives, piles and mounded cells visible from the access road, and heavy equipment moving around. Pull into the lane at the booth, check in, then follow the traffic flow to a dumping spot; vehicles usually have to back into the drop area and then return over the scale. Weekends and spring cleanup bring longer lines, so there can be a wait before getting to the dumping area.
