How disposal works in Nebraska
Nebraska's landfills are run by cities and regional solid waste agencies, and most price small loads by the vehicle or with a low minimum: $5.25 a car in Lincoln, $20 a car at the Sarpy County Transfer Station, a $12 minimum in Hastings and $22 for a small load in Beatrice. Omaha has no public dump of its own; it pays part of the cost for residents at a private transfer station.
State law shapes every visit. Yard waste is kept out of landfills from April through November, and car batteries, waste oil, tires and household appliances can't be buried at all, so landfills sort them out and charge a small fee to recycle them.
