You need to turn right onto 28th from California. Took about 35 minutes from the top of the hill. Very efficient- don’t be intimidated by long line of cars. I had about 40 cars ahead of me when I got in line. Got in line around 11:45 am and was leaving the lot around 12:20 pm. You just need to dump your own sharpies at a mid point in line; otherwise you stay on your car the entire time and they just take everything out of the car for you.

This place is fantastic and so convenient to discard junk, trash, demolition work, ect. Comes in handy for me as I do side work of hauling away junk like demo debris from remodel projects. I either use my own truck or rent a UHaul to haul junk away. EDCO is open daily and early till evening so it's really convenient. You drive on a scale to get weighed with junk and then drive into a covered facility where you offload all the junk and drive out to scales to re-weigh. Last visit I remember it was about $105 per ton to discard. My averages were abou 3 tons, 1 1/2 on the light side and nearly 7 tons on the heavy side. Besure to take a face mask cause it's inside a covered facility and the air quality is poor, lots of dust, dirt and not too pleasant smelling. Also take gloves and wear long pants and good shoes to off load your junk. You are guided to back into an area to offload. We used a iron raje to rake out the debris. You just shuck the trash out behind your vehicle. Some guys got it easy and use a tilting dump truck. It took us about 40 minutes to 1 hour to offload the junk. The line to get in can get busy but moves fast with wauting times from 5 minutes to 45 minutes. Lots of commercial tractor trailers, commercial garbage trucks, junk haulers, gardeners, and people just cleaning out their storage spaces. It's really a cool experience and they have these huge oversized heavy machinery shovel tractors that are continually scooping up junk and piling it up high and away to make room for more off loads. Amazing operation to watch. I never realized how much money is involved with junk and a dump site. Best thing, bottom line, is that EDCO provides a environmental clean & safe way to dump your bulk trash. Besides it's the responsible, legal way to do it versus drive-by illegal dumping. It's really worth the cost. So surprised to see just how many people are taking advantage of this opportunity. Other dump sites are restrictive, hard to access and costly. EDCO you just Dump & Go. Done!

We dropped off cans of old paint. The people working at the facility were helpful and courteous. The line of cars waiting was long, but it went quickly.
