Murrieta containers go to a Riverside County landfill rather than to a transfer station, because the County has no public transfer station anywhere in its boundaries. The nearest county site serving this corner is the Lamb Canyon Sanitary Landfill at 16411 Lamb Canyon Road, Beaumont, CA 92223, reached up the Highway 79 corridor.
The County is clear about who runs it. In its own words, the Riverside County Department of Waste Resources operates five landfills that serve Riverside County residents, and Lamb Canyon is one of them. That makes it a publicly owned and publicly operated site rather than a contracted one.
Published hours are 6:00 am to 4:30 pm Monday through Saturday, and the County warns that gates close promptly at the stated closing time rather than at the convenience of the last truck in line. An early start is normal for commercial loads here, and an afternoon call-off is the usual reason a container waits a day.
The County also names a privately operated landfill in the same county. That one is company-run, so we leave it unnamed here, and your account manager confirms the destination and the applicable rate for your particular load before the container is delivered.
Two gate conditions travel with every load. Hazardous waste is refused outright. And an uncovered or unsecured load picks up a County surcharge, assessed on the spot by the gate staff, which is exactly why loads are tarped as standard.
