The Yoakum County Landfill sits on County Road 295, roughly seven miles south of the town of Plains, and it is the destination for waste collected across this corner of the South Plains. The City of Plains confirms on its sanitation page that everything its crews pick up ends up here.

We are carrying no rates, no opening hours and no payment methods for this site, and that is a deliberate gap rather than an oversight. Neither the county nor the city publishes a fee schedule or a timetable for the landfill anywhere we can find online. What the city does state is that the landfill exists, where it is, and that it receives the town's collected refuse. Our records also show the site as restricted to Yoakum County waste, with material from outside the county not accepted.

Practically, that means one phone call before you load anything. The City of Plains can be reached on 806-456-2288 and will point you at the right county contact for gate hours and charges. Household collection in Plains itself runs once a week on Mondays for homes, with businesses served on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, so if your question is really about kerbside service rather than tipping, that is handled by the city and not at the landfill gate.

We would rather show this page with honest blanks than fill it with figures lifted from a directory site. If you visit and the gate carries a posted rate board, tell us through the report link and we will source it properly and publish it.
