The posted rates are $75 a ton for household (Class I) and construction (Class III/IV) waste and $40 a ton for clean wood waste and chips. Pay with cash, a check, or a physical Visa, MasterCard, or Discover card (2.5% fee, $1.95 at least).Williamson County’s convenience centers page says there’s been no free disposal at the landfill since May 4, 2026, but further down it still says residents with more than 3 cubic yards can take them to the landfill free, up to 5 tons a year.
