Rules in Tulare County
- Tulare County runs two landfills (Visalia and Woodville) and six rural transfer stations. Flat-load rates apply to cars, pickups and trailers under 8 feet; larger or commercial loads are weighed. Loads must be covered to get the lower rate. Source
- The county landfills do not accept electronics, televisions, batteries, fluorescent lights, liquid waste or treated wood. Cars, boats, trailers, motorcycles and mobile homes need a DMV junk slip and fluids removed. Source
- The rural transfer stations take cash or check only, with no card payments and no ATM. Source
Before you go
- A cargo net or tarp keeps bags and boards in place and saves an uncovered-load fee.
- Keep recyclables and yard waste separate; they often go to a different pile or are cheaper.
- Ask on the phone whether they take small loads from individuals.
- Load the heaviest items last so they come off first.
