Small-town disposal site used by Chilton residents and landscapers looking to drop off household and yard refuse. Looks like a working site rather than a polished public park; expect trucks, trailers, and a steady flow during weekends. Locals swing by for regular cleanups or after projects around the house.
Pull up to an entrance booth or gate where attendants will direct traffic; larger trucks usually go one way and smaller vehicles another. There’s typically a scale you’ll cross when coming in or leaving, so plan for a short stop while the load is checked. Piles and bays of different materials sit out in the open, with recycling containers usually grouped to one side of the yard. In winter, routines and where to drop things can change because of snow and icy ramps, so everything can look messier than in summer.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring a tarp or straps to keep loose material contained in the truck or trailer - wind can blow things around on site.
- Backing up is common; keep a clear line of sight and have someone spot if the load blocks view when reversing.
- Load things in an order that makes unloading easier (heaviest items first); it saves time once next to the appropriate pile or bay.
