Where Is the Dump

Plan your drop-off

Dumps & landfills in West Virginia

West Virginia is served by county solid waste authorities that run a handful of public landfills and transfer stations, while many of the biggest landfills are privately run (Waste Management, Republic, Mascaro). Disposal rates posted by the state run roughly $32 to $98 per ton, and several landfills hold monthly free days for state residents (often up to 516 pounds). Most county sites for small loads are recycling drop-offs, so confirm what a site takes before you haul.

State rules to know

Free-day allowance

Landfills with a state-approved free-day policy (for example Mercer and Wood counties) let West Virginia residents with ID dispose of up to 516 pounds of household waste free once a month; freon appliances and tires usually carry a fee. Official rule ↗

Bulky items and tires from home

Under Public Service Commission rules, every licensed trash hauler must offer monthly bulky-goods pickup (appliances, furniture, TVs, bicycles, off-rim car and pickup tires, and items over 3 feet or 50 pounds) to its customers, so many residents can skip the trip. Official rule ↗

State assessment fees

Posted disposal rates at WV landfills and transfer stations are the base rate plus state assessment fees; the state publishes the totals for each operational facility. Official rule ↗

No permanent household hazardous waste sites were confirmed on official pages; Monongalia County's recycling page says hazardous waste collection is by occasional events (check with local utility or authority).
