North Dakota dump FAQ
How many landfills are in North Dakota?
Dumpmapper lists 19 landfills in North Dakota, in 14 of its 53 counties, plus 1 transfer station, where you can usually drop off trash and bulky loads. The list comes from OpenStreetMap and the US EPA Landfill Methane Outreach Program database, so it can miss sites, especially private or construction-debris landfills.
Where can I take household hazardous waste in North Dakota?
We don't have a household hazardous waste drop-off listed in North Dakota yet. Many counties hold collection days a few times a year, so check with your county's solid waste or public works office. Our household hazardous waste guide explains what to expect.
Do dumps in North Dakota charge a fee?
Many do, and each site sets its own prices. Charges often depend on weight, load size or the type of item, and tires, mattresses and appliances commonly cost extra. We don't publish prices we can't verify, so ask the site before you go. The dump cost calculator can help you estimate a load.
Can I use a dump in North Dakota if I'm not a resident?
It depends on the site. Some city- and county-run sites serve residents only or charge non-residents more, while many privately run landfills and transfer stations take anyone who pays. Check the site's rules before you go, and bring an ID or a utility bill in case they ask for proof of address.
How do I find the phone number or hours for a dump in North Dakota?
None of the 21 listings in North Dakota has a phone number or website in our sources yet. For listings without one, use the Find phone & hours link: it opens a web search for the site's name and town. If you find the phone number or hours, send them to us and we'll add them after checking.
Which counties in North Dakota have the most dump and drop-off listings?
McKenzie County (3), Cass County (2), and Grand Forks County (2) have the most listings. 15 of North Dakota's 53 counties have at least one listing; the pages for the rest point to the nearest sites in neighboring areas.
Where can I recycle paint and batteries in North Dakota?
Dumpmapper lists 0 paint drop-offs and 0 battery drop-offs in North Dakota. Public data on these is thin, so also try the PaintCare site finder (it only covers states with a paint stewardship program) and the Call2Recycle battery locator. Our paint and battery guides cover the basics.
