A working landfill out on Roy Martin Road that local residents and haulers use to dispose of household and commercial trash. Small-town feel: not fancy, just a practical place where loads get buried and the site stays busy on certain days.
Drive up to an entrance booth and pull in so the attendant (or scale operator) can direct you; there’s usually a scale you’ll cross, so plan for a stop on the way out as well. The site is open and exposed - slopes, gravel drives and compacted dirt around the tipping area are common, with machinery and trailers visible beyond the main drop-off. Loads are tipped into a working face where trucks back up to unload; larger commercial trucks mix with smaller pickup loads during peak times. Expect to be directed where to dump and to follow basic vehicle routing across the property.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring something that covers cargo - tarps and tied loads prevent spillover on the drive and keep things moving smoothly.
- Allow extra time on weekends and during spring cleanup; queues and backing-up at the scale are common then.
- Use a vehicle with good clearance if possible; ramps and internal roads can be rough or muddy depending on weather.
