Demolition Material

Ideally, customers will bring demolition material directly to the privately owned Demolition Landfill. Demo debris collected at the Clay County Landfill is hauled by the county to Clay Demolition Debris Landfill for disposal.

The permitted landfill area covers 17.8 acres, with a 250,000-cubic-yard capacity, and receives about 400 loads of debris annually.
