(866) 909-4458Valley Trail Security Landfill sits out on Willard Road just outside Berlin and is the kind of place local homeowners and contractors use when stuff can't go in the curb bin. It’s a working landfill - big open cells and truck traffic - used by both small-scale drop-offs and larger commercial hauls.
There’s usually a scale/booth area at the entrance, so expect to stop briefly to be directed onto the site; landfills typically charge tipping fees based on weight, and commercial loads are commonly accepted at facilities like this. Pull up to the booth/scale, then follow directions to a dumping pad or active cell where trucks and pickups unload. The property looks industrial: dirt roads, piles of cover soil, and heavy equipment moving around; expect dust and big trucks. Plan for a short wait at busier times - spring cleanups and weekends can stack traffic.
