Get Directions

Wetzel County Landfill is the county landfill out on Cider Run near New Martinsville, used by folks dealing with big cleanouts and businesses with loads that don’t fit curbside pickup. This is where trash is buried rather than streamed off for curb collection, so expect larger vehicles and heavier loads than a transfer station.

The site is a working landfill setup - there’s typically an entrance booth and a scale, so plan on being weighed and charged a tipping fee based on weight. After the scale, vehicles are sent to the active dumping area; expect compacted dirt mounds, heavy equipment moving around, and a lot of gravel underfoot. Traffic can back up on weekends and during spring cleanup, and larger trucks will be maneuvering, so take it slow when pulling through.

Before You Go

  • Cover and secure loads before leaving home; loose debris will slow everyone down and create extra work at the drop-off.
  • Sort out recyclables and reusable items at the driveway so the landfill stop is just a quick unload instead of rummaging through mixed bags.
  • Wear sturdy shoes and give heavy equipment plenty of space - surfaces can be muddy or rutted after rain, and backing trucks need room to turn.
