Small county-style disposal site used by local residents and small haulers from around Minocqua. Easy to spot off County J with an entrance booth and open tipping area that looks like a working landfill rather than a tidy drop-off center.
Drive up to a gatehouse/entrance booth where attendants will direct vehicles - there’s a scale on the driveway so trucks often stop twice. The tipping area is roomy with piles and compactors visible; bring a truck or trailer that can maneuver on gravel and dirt surfaces. Recycling or drop-off containers are usually set to the side of the main drive; signage is basic, so watch what other vehicles are doing if unsure. Wintertime brings changes to hours and traffic flow, and the lot can get muddy or icy where snowplows push berms.

Before You Go
- Bring straps or a tarp for loose loads - wind and the drive can scatter debris quickly.
- Use a smaller vehicle or trailer on busy weekend mornings to avoid long waits from larger haulers.
- Leave room on the truck for someone to walk around and guide backing; the tipping area has tight spots and blind corners.
