About Find Dumps

A free map of public dumps, because "where's the dump?" shouldn't take 20 minutes of Googling with a mattress strapped to your roof.

Where the data comes from

We start from Google Maps listings for landfills, transfer stations, recycling drop-offs and yard waste sites in every county, then remove anything that isn't a place the public can drop things off: haulers, dumpster rental, junk removal, scrap buyers, thrift stores and closed sites. Hours, phone numbers and websites come from each site's listing. Today that's 241 places in Ohio.

What we don't know yet

Fees, residents-only rules and which items each site accepts change often and aren't on most listings. We're adding them county by county from official sources. Until a site shows them, call or check its website before you go.

Something wrong?

If a site has closed, moved or changed its hours, let us know and we'll fix it. A report form is coming soon.
