(414) 761-5374Greenfield Solid Waste Drop is the municipal drop-off on S 52nd for folks in and around Greenfield hauling household trash, yard clippings and whatever else ends up in the truck. Neighbors use it for weekend cleanup runs and for tossing items that don’t fit in the regular curbside bin. The site looks like a county-run solid waste facility-practical, a bit industrial, and busy at peak times.
Drive up to an entrance booth area where vehicles slow down to check in; larger trucks and trailers pull into a separate lane. There’s a scale and sorting areas beyond the booth, so expect to stop twice if the site charges by weight. Recycling and yard waste piles or containers are usually grouped to one side, with household trash containers and drop-off points spread across the main yard. Weekends and spring cleanups get lines, while winter brings a different rhythm and sometimes modified procedures.
