Dothan Landfill — Where to Take Trash in 2026
The City of Dothan's own pages disagree about its landfill. The landfill page says the City of Dothan Sanitary Landfill is closed, and that once it reopens, city Environmental customers can use it free while others pay at least $45.09 a ton. The city's garbage page lists landfill hours of Monday to Thursday, 6 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Call Environmental Services at (334) 615-3820 before you haul anything.
Meanwhile, most city residents don't need a dump at all: Dothan's weekly trash collection picks up furniture, appliances and yard waste at the curb. For construction debris, the city lists private landfills nearby, plus the Coffee County Landfill in Elba.
