Winding Creek Recycling

What you can bring to Winding Creek, and what it costs

Every load crosses our state-certified scale, so you pay for what you bring. We’re open Monday to Friday from 7:00 AM. The last load crosses the scale at 4:30 PM, so arrive by 4:30 to dump the same day. Closed weekends and holidays. Rates as of October 2026.

Concrete, brick and other clean fill: $25 per ton

Concrete, asphalt, brick and mortar, block, tile, stone, natural sand and shale all come in as clean fill at $25 a ton, with a one-ton minimum ($25). Keep it clean: wood, shingles, drywall, metal or trash in the load means it no longer counts as clean fill, and regular rates apply.

Heading back to the job? #2 and #304 recycled concrete is $17 a ton for pickup, no minimum.

Dirt: $25 per ton

Clean dirt and compactable earth count as clean fill: $25 a ton, with a one-ton minimum ($25). Dirt mixed with trash, wood or brush doesn’t qualify.

Construction and demolition debris, including shingles: $65 per ton

Drywall, lumber and other wood, roofing and other construction or tear-off debris. Shingles are charged as C&D, so there’s no separate pile. Loads over 1,000 lbs are $65 a ton with a $65 minimum. Lighter loads use the small-load prices below.

Brush and limbs: $40 per ton

Brush, limbs and branches are $40 a ton, with a one-ton minimum ($40). Lumber and other wood are charged as C&D.

Household trash: $70 per ton

Winding Creek is the only one of our yards that takes household trash. Loads over 1,000 lbs are $70 a ton with a $70 minimum. Lighter loads use the small-load prices below.

Small loads: $25 or $50

• Up to 500 lbs: $25
• 500 to 1,000 lbs: $50

Same price for household trash and C&D. No two-ton minimum here. Concrete, dirt and brush have the one-ton minimum instead.

Per-item charges

• Tires: $25 each. They can’t go in a dumpster rental, but you can drop them here.
• Mattresses and box springs: $10 each
• Refrigerators and other freon appliances: bring a tag showing the freon was professionally removed, or there’s a $50 charge
• Sealed containers or propane tanks found in a load: $25 each

What we can’t take

Hazardous waste, liquids, batteries, paint, chemicals, asbestos, old tube (CRT) TVs and monitors, fluorescent tubes and CFL bulbs, and railroad ties. Flat-screen TVs are fine. We don’t pay for scrap metal.
