Chatham County has a LCID (land-clearing inert debris) landfill located at the Waste Management Facility, 720 County Landfill Road.  Hours of business are Monday thru Friday, 7:00 AM until 3:30 PM. 

A $20/ton tipping fee is charged for the following items:

  • Yard waste (branches, grass clippings, leaves)
  • Wood waste, pallets (clean, untreated, unpainted)
  • Stumps
  • Brick, block, concrete, rock
  • Sand, dirt

Once a year a contractor with the Waste Management Division grinds and windrows the yard waste and clean wood waste to make landscaping mulch. This mulch is sold by the cubic yard during the spring on Saturdays, and is loaded into your vehicle.  Arrangements can be made to have large amounts delivered to your site.  Call 542-5516 for more information.
