CASH PAYMENTS: Cash payments are accepted, ONLY FROM MONMOUTH COUNTY RESIDENTS dumping personal waste from their primary residence. We only accept CASH or PERSONAL CHECKS. You must provide a VALID Drivers License, CURRENT registration to your personal vehicle, and (trailer if applicable) when you pull onto the Scales.

 

All others must establish a pre-paid account with the Finance Department in the Reclamation Center Scales Office 732-683-8686, ext. 5600 or 5601, or click on the link below to download a copy of the pre-paid account application. There is a RETURN CHECK CHARGE of $25.00 (PAID IN CASH) for all bounced checks. All companies that have multiple returned checks will only be able to fund their account with CASH, or a bank cashiers check. Any delinquent accounts will not be allowed to dump until the account has sufficient funds in it.

Grass is accepted for disposal, separate from all other wastes. $3 per car or $35 per ton for trucks ($0.35 per 20 lbs). Station Wagons, Minivans and SUV-type vehicles qualify for the car rate when grass is behind the rear-most seat only!

The landfill utilizes "Vehicle Scales", which record weights in 20-pound increments.  The vehicle with the trash is weighed in.  Next the resident dumps the waste at a specified area and then the vehicle returns to the scale complex, where the vehicle is weighed out.  Payment is based on a calculation of the difference between the two weights.  With the exception of the $3 flat rate for grass (see above), All rates are "pro-rated", meaning that payment is based on the amount of weight disposed.  There is no minimum or maximum. 
 
It will cost $1.06 for each 20-pound increment of bulky and construction-type wastes.  As an example, if a resident were to dump 100 pounds of Waste Type 13 or 13C (i.e. old furniture, wood, sheetrock, tile, old light fixtures, cabinets, etc.); the cost would be $5.33 for every 100-pounds dumped. 
 
Household Waste Type 10 (regular bagged food-stuff wastes, which would normally go out to the curb for weekly pickup) is $0.73 for each 20-pound increment.
 
Asbestos Waste Type 27A is $1.72 for each 20-pound increment.
