Where is the landfill? What are the hours of operation?

The Des Moines County Regional Landfill and the HazChem Center are located off of Washington Road, northwest of West Burlington and has a paved drop off site for citizens. Hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. and Saturday 8:00 a.m. until noon. For your safety, an appointment is always necessary at the HazChem Center, so please call first. The number of the Hazchem Center is 319-753-8758. To reach the landfill from the intersection of Mt. Pleasant Street and Roosevelt Avenue, travel West through West Burlington on Mt. Pleasant Street to Washington Road which is ½ mile past Deery Brother's. Turn North on Washington Road and travel 1.3 miles to the entry road on the right to the landfill. All loads delivered to the landfill must be secured to prevent litter along the road. In most cases, this will require a tarp. Unsecured loads are charged a $10 surcharge. The Des Moines County Regional Landfill telephone number is 319-753-8722.
