This is a pretty standard landfill with friendly staff. Prices are reasonable. Just be sure to have any open trailers or beds covered or suffer the wrath of double the price.

If you're trying to talk to an actual person, don't call here. Nothing but automated information, and no possibility of leaving a message.

Was totally surprised at how quick we were able yo get in and out. Lady at the window was very friendly and helpful. We screwed up and drove up while someone was on the scale and she was great about our apologies. We had a large truck load. No beds or appliances and it was only $22.00. The roads are a little bumpy but very much expected. They have people quiding you and their guys on the equipment getting the trash pushed back out of the way. So glad it went quickly.

Do you take used tires?

John Garcia | Dec 4, 2021

They will take tires, but charge different fees for tires that are still on rims. Make sure you lat them know you have tires. They go in a specific area of the landfill. If you don't let them know, and they see you throw even 1 tire on the dump deck, you can be fined quite a bit.

How much for a full size hide-a-bed couch?

Keef Cats | Oct 1, 2018
Nicklas Lopez | Oct 1, 2018

Flat rate of $18 dollars has been implemented and the bigger the trash load the bigger the fee will be. Uncovered loads will be charged double because it is state law that all loads are covered and securely tied down before transport. This law is for everyone to follow both commercial and residential vehicles.
