Greenbrier County Landfill
Greenbrier County Landfill, Harper Road PO Box 1664, Lewisburg, 24901, West Virginia
Greenbrier County Landfill on Harper Road in Lewisburg is the county landfill - the place trash gets buried. Locals and haulers bring everything from small pickups to larger trucks; expect it to look like a working dump rather than a tidy transfer station.
Drive up to an entrance area and cross a scale so loads can be weighed; tipping fees are typically charged by weight or by load type at facilities like this. There’s usually a booth or checkpoint where someone directs traffic, then a drive up to the active cell where drivers tip their loads. The site is mostly dirt and gravel roads with visible landfill cells and heavy equipment moving around, so watch for trucks and keep a safe distance. Lines build on weekends and during spring cleanups, so plan accordingly.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure and tarp loose loads before leaving home - debris blowing out of a truck makes for a mess and slows the line.
- Sort what can be separated (metal, bulky items) before arriving to speed up unloading and avoid extra handling.
- Drive slowly on the access road, follow any flaggers or signs, and leave room for large trucks to maneuver.
