Services offered include disposal of brush, leaves, grass trimmings, bulk pickup and drop-off, trash collection, and access to wood chips, compost, and topsoil. The site does not accept additional refuse for disposal but instead transports collected waste to active landfills. Visitors can find more information on acceptable items for disposal on the official website. The City of Chelsea continues to monitor the landfill at the site as required by the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality.
