On 7-27-2022 I was at the gate 5:00 pm I was able to enter through the gate while a lady was placing traffic cones blocking the way to the scale I asked the lady to let me in and she lied and said the scale is off!! she walked a way,the top manager Ms.Terri,( who had a fake smile)refused to let us in ,claiming that my household trash will mess up the whole operation!! Lol 😆,,she didn't make any sense, !!her poor treatment and unfair handling costed me over $200 and another day off work!! It's sux to feel this special treatment cuz you are diffrent!! It's a place of garbage with really trashy treatment! I will file a complaint to the commissioners and polj county committee! if you have options don't use this facility!

Really easy and cheap fee to dump here. The employees on top of the hill in the booth are lazy. The work release crew from the jails were harder workers.
