Location of Clean Landfill

The City of Omro Clean Landfill is located on South Webster Avenue on the south side of the community. When traveling southbound, the facility is situated on the right-hand side at the top of the hill. The entrance is controlled by a locked gate and is clearly identified with posted signage to assist residents in easily locating the site. Residents should watch for the designated entrance area and follow all posted instructions upon arrival.


Eligibility for Use

Use of the clean landfill is limited exclusively to City of Omro resident taxpayers. Individuals utilizing the site must provide proof of residency at the time of access. Acceptable forms of identification include a valid driver’s license displaying a current City of Omro address or documentation verifying ownership of property within the City.

This facility is strictly for residential use only. Commercial use is prohibited. Contractors and service providers—including, but not limited to, landscaping companies, tree removal services, and lawn care providers—are not permitted to dispose of materials at the site, regardless of whether the work is performed within the City.

The clean landfill is provided as a service to residents and may be used at no cost by eligible individuals.


2026 Seasonal Opening and Saturday Hours

The clean landfill will open for the 2026 season on Saturday, April 11, 2026, and will be open from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

These hours will continue each Saturday throughout the operating season. The facility typically remains open until approximately mid-November, depending on seasonal conditions, weather, and the completion of the City’s curbside leaf collection program. Residents are encouraged to monitor City communications for any seasonal updates or changes to operating hours.


Weekday Access Options

In addition to Saturday hours, residents may access the clean landfill during regular City Hall business hours by checking out a gate access key. To obtain a key, residents must present a valid driver’s license with a current City of Omro address or provide proof of property ownership within the City.

This weekday access option provides flexibility for residents to dispose of approved materials such as brush, grass clippings, yard waste, and limited quantities of rock at their convenience.

Residents are responsible for the proper use of the facility during key access periods. This includes ensuring the gate is securely locked upon departure and returning the key promptly to City Hall. Key access is only available during regular office hours; no after-hours or weekend key checkout is permitted.
