When a hauler makes sense here
The town has also run free dump days twice a year, in May and November, so check whether one is close. If the appliance has to move sooner, or you have no truck, that is what we are here for.
The landfill is across the river in Rio Rancho, so the fee is the small part. The lifting and the loading are the real job.
