Dump fee and disposal tools

Two calculators built on published sources: what the dump will take, and roughly what it will charge. Both link to the state directories for the posted rates at each facility.

• Can I dump this?

  Pick one of 32 common items (mattress, tires, paint, freon appliances, concrete, asbestos) and see whether it goes to the landfill, an HHW event or a recycler, with cited county fees and prep tips.

• Dump fee estimator

  Turn a trunk, pickup, trailer or dump-truck load of trash, C&D or yard waste into a dollar range using the EREF 2024 average of $62.28 per ton, EPA load weights and cited county minimums.

Every number in these tools is copied from a cited EPA, EREF or county source; nothing is estimated from thin air. Rules and fees vary by facility, so confirm at the gate. See also the guides.
