How disposal works in Louisiana

In Louisiana, many parishes and cities let residents dump household trash free: the Jefferson Parish Landfill allows two free loads a day, East Baton Rouge's North Landfill and Shreveport's Woolworth Road Landfill are free for residents, Calcasieu Parish runs two free convenience centers, and Acadia Parish charges no tipping fees at all. Out-of-parish loads pay, such as $43.26 a ton in Shreveport and $48 a ton in Baton Rouge.

State law keeps car batteries out of household trash, bars whole tires from landfills and sends appliances to collection or recycling sites.

We're writing Louisiana up place by place: 6 places are live, and our guide to what it costs to dump in Louisiana puts their rates side by side. The finder covers every open landfill in the federal facility data, plus the parish drop-off sites on our pages.
