Douglas County Transfer Station (Gardnerville, Nevada) — Hours, Fees & Green Waste
Douglas County's dump is the Douglas County Transfer Station at 902 Dump Road, off Pinenut Road near Gardnerville, run by Douglas Disposal. It's open Tuesday through Sunday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and closed Mondays.
The tip fee is $133 a ton, but clean green waste gets a reduced rate of $57.70 a ton, and every load has to be tarped.
From Douglas Disposal's transfer station page. Clean green waste means trees, logs, limbs, brush and leaves only: no lumber, painted wood, bags or furniture.
The transfer station takes residential and commercial trash, construction waste, green waste, white goods and metals, inert waste and tires up to 36 inches. Larger tires go to the Carson City Landfill. Green waste is composted in the Carson Valley, keeping more than 1,500 tons a year out of the landfill.
Nevada law makes it illegal to dump a car battery, tire or motor oil anywhere that isn't permitted to take it, landfills included, so ask before you bring them. In a county with a permitted tire-processing facility, tires can't be landfilled at all; elsewhere landfills cut or split them first.
