⚠️The County landfill page prints no effective date for these rates (no last updated, effective or fiscal year date on the page). The only County rate sheet PDF found is marked "Effective 10-01-21" with in-county waste at $39.28 per ton, so the page rates are newer than that PDF, but which fiscal year they belong to is not printed. Call to confirm the rates are current for FY 2026-27.
⚠️Household trash, furniture, mattresses, appliances and yard waste are not named on the landfill page; the page prices "Waste Generated in County" only. Call to confirm what residents can bring.
⚠️Card only: Visa or Mastercard. Cash is not accepted.
⚠️Wide loads are not accepted until further notice because of a new traffic pattern; all loads must stay inside the trailer.
⚠️Commercial C&D haulers without a valid building permit number are charged the out-of-county rate.
