The county's own listing
Fort Bend County's environmental health pages, in the section on illegal dumping, publish a short list of state-approved local landfills. Sprint Fort Bend Landfill is on that list at 16007 West Bellfort, Richmond, TX 77469, phone 281-277-3277. Mapping apps sometimes label the same driveway as Sugar Land. Use the county's street address and the phone number, and do not guess from a ZIP code alone. The county list is how you tell this site from other Fort Bend disposal locations the same page names, including Blue Ridge Landfill in Fresno and Fort Bend Regional Landfill near Fairchilds.
Why the name looks like a company, not a town
Sprint here is the landfill operator, Sprint Fort Bend County Landfill, not the phone carrier and not a transfer station with a walk-up recycling desk. County commissioners' records describe a landfill the company has operated on land along West Bellfort since the early 1980s, later expanded as Area Seven under the county's order on where solid waste disposal is allowed. That history explains the name. It does not tell you whether today's load is accepted. Household trash, roofing, concrete, and contaminated soil are different questions, and only the scale house can answer them for the truck you are driving.
What to verify the day you go
Hours on third-party directories do not agree about Saturday afternoon, so this page will not pretend one of them is official. Call 281-277-3277 or read the operator's current facility page before you leave. Ask whether your material is accepted, whether the load must be tarped, whether there is a minimum, and whether a trailer of your length is allowed that day. Fort Bend County's list proves the site is a recognized local landfill. It is not a fee schedule. If the person on the phone cannot take the material, ask which of the other landfills on the county list is the right one instead of dumping it on a roadside.
Before you go
- Navigate to 16007 West Bellfort, Richmond, using the county address.

- Do not rely on a directory's Saturday hours if they disagree.
- If you are refused, use another facility the county lists rather than an empty lot.
