Other notes

  • The currently published county fee table is explicitly dated January 1, 2024, not 2026. Confirm rates before a large load; card processing fees are paid by the payer.
  • Cover or secure every load. Traffic is one way, and county staff/equipment cannot help unload. Bring enough help and separate garbage or demolition from appliances, electronics, tires and metal.
  • The county page also lists asbestos items at $0.10 per pound, $15 minimum, but does not establish packaging, notice or approval conditions. Arrange special handling in advance, not as ordinary self-haul garbage.
  • No hazardous waste is accepted. The county hosts separate hazardous-waste collections. County can refuse service; all sales final.
