West Virginia dump FAQ

How many landfills are in West Virginia?

Dumpmapper lists 22 landfills in West Virginia, in 18 of its 55 counties, plus 2 transfer stations, 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 West Virginia?

We don't have a household hazardous waste drop-off listed in West Virginia 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 West Virginia 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 West Virginia 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 West Virginia?

1 of the 33 listings in West Virginia has a phone number or website in our sources. We show it on the map popup, the county page and the listing page, and you can tap a phone number to call. 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 West Virginia have the most dump and drop-off listings?

Putnam County (4), Cabell County (3), and Jefferson County (2) have the most listings. 24 of West Virginia's 55 counties have at least one listing; the pages for the rest point to the nearest sites in neighboring areas.
