The Tomoka
Landfill, just west of Daytona Beach, is the county's only
permitted landfill. It receives all solid waste generated in Volusia County. This
3,400-acre landfill area has a life expectancy to 2030. About 200 acres of this land have
been earmarked for recycling efforts.
West Volusia material is brought to the West Volusia
Transfer Station in DeLand, then hauled to the Tomoka Landfill by tractor trailer
for disposal.
The Solid Waste Division is one of county government's
enterprise operations. This means there are no local property tax dollars allocated to
operate solid waste. Instead, the users pay for the operation of the disposal activities
through a fee structure. The rate for garbage disposal is $34 per ton. Yard waste is $23
per ton. These are among the lowest rates in Florida.
Signs clearly posted at facility entrances advise residents
what materials are accepted. County personnel keep a close watch on all waste materials
being deposited.
NO! Motor
oil MAY NOT be dumped. Please use the
non-commercial oil recycling igloo on site.

Household waste such as food scraps and cloth may be disposed.
YES! The
following materials are accepted, but are separated at the landfill: yard waste, land
clearing debris, construction materials, appliances and all types of tires. Yard waste
must be received separate from all other material.
The Tomoka Landfill has a Household Hazardous Waste facility on site. It
offers residents the opportunity to dispose of gasoline, paints, thinners/solvents, pool
chemicals and similar materials FREE!
