Other notes
- Report all material types at the gatehouse and unload where directed. Attendant estimates volume and assesses excess charges. The elevated residential pad near the gatehouse avoids mixing small vehicles with active landfill trucks.
- Current main page limits the allowance to personal-residence debris and warns of special-item surcharges. Older residential description simply says up to 3 yards household/yard waste; use current main-page restrictions and do not promise all materials are free.
- The city calendar confirms Veterans Day November 11, 2026 landfill hours remain 8 a.m.-4 p.m. even though city offices close. Thanksgiving November 26 city services close. Calendar shows November 27 and 28 landfill 7 a.m.-2 p.m.
- No out-of-county, out-of-state or Canadian waste. No liquids or household hazardous waste in ordinary landfill disposal. Dried latex paint is allowed by the city guide; liquid paint is not.
- Midland Recyclers at the entrance is a separate electronics operation. City guide excludes CRT televisions/monitors from that electronics route and directs CRT disposal to standard landfill rates. Do not apply landfill hours/prices to every recycler service.
