A working waste disposal site on S. Hickory used by locals bringing household loads and small trucks. Good for folks in and around Fond du Lac who need to drop off regular refuse or bagged items without driving to a transfer station farther out of town.
There’s an entrance booth and a place to pull up and get weighed, so plan on stopping twice if charged by weight. Trucks and trailers are common here; the site feels industrial with piles, bins, and large containers visible from the drive. Winter can change how things run, so expect extra shoveling, salt, or altered traffic flow during snowy months. Weekends and spring cleanup bring lines and more congestion than midweek.
Facility Information
Before You Go

- Bring a clear plan for where items go; larger trucks will need room to maneuver and backing space can be tight.
- Avoid peak times like weekend mornings and early spring cleanup days if possible to skip long waits.
