Landfill Closure Notice

It is crucial to note that the Pocahontas County Landfill (located at Landfill Road in Dunmore) is estimated to close in the fall of 2026 due to reaching its permitted capacity. Following this closure, the SWA is planning a transition to a transfer station model, which is expected to result in significantly higher Green Box fees to cover the costs of transporting waste to another county's landfill.  

Salt Shaker Press (i.e. Norman Alderman) will FOIA all your letters from the SWA.
