Very friendly team.

This place charges you for everything. A branch over 4 feet? You’re charged for the whole load. And no, you can’t just break the branch in half; that’s not allowed. A toilet? Not approved, have to pay for that. Glass? You guessed it; have to pay for that. The people are friendly, but the rules are insane and unlike any dump I’ve ever been to.

Everyone is nice and extremely helpful. This location is clean and organized; I can say dumping household trash, hazardous waste, and yard debris had definitely been made to be a good experience. Thank you Mrs Debbie!!

I came by to drop off household hazardous waste. First I went into the office because this was my first time dropping off and I wasn't sure what to do. The woman at the office was so nice, and directed me to the scales and said they would help me from there. Over at the scales, the woman at the window was also very nice and explained where to go next based on what I was bringing. Over at the hazardous waste area, everything went smoothly, with the workers telling me where to dump things and where to put containers. It was all very straightforward and easy. I did have to wait in line for a bit, but it wasn't excessive and the cars moved through fairly quickly. Overall, it was a painless process and I greatly appreciated everyone's kindness and patience.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.
