Town’s Landfill at 1076 Gunnlaugsson Rd is Washington’s local place for final disposal of household and commercial refuse. Locals, landscapers and small haulers use it when recycling drop-offs or curbside pickup won’t do. Expect a working, no-frills facility rather than anything fancy.
There’s a drive-in approach with a weigh scale and an attendant booth; loads are typically weighed so tipping fees are based on weight. Pull up to the booth first, then follow direction from attendants to the disposal area where trucks and trailers unload. The site is large and mostly open - dirt, compacted cover, and mounded cells are what stand out from the road. In winter months traffic patterns and procedures can change, and snow/ice can make the access road rougher than usual.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Have your load secured and covered for the drive in; loose debris can blow out on the road and makes the trip a hassle.
- Separate out recyclables and anything salvageable before getting in line - it speeds things up and keeps drop-offs quicker.
- Bring identification or proof of residency if applicable, and plan for possible weekend backups during spring cleanup or after storms.
