The Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County handles disposal for the whole county, and two of its sites matter most for Wellington.
The Royal Palm Beach Transfer Station is about 5 miles away at 9743 Weisman Way, Royal Palm Beach, FL 33411. It's open Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday, 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. It can't take concrete, block, brick, tile, roofing, construction lumber, dirt, or large stumps.
Those heavier loads go to the North County Landfill at 6330 N Jog Road, West Palm Beach, FL 33412. It's open Monday through Saturday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Both sites are closed on Sundays, Thanksgiving, and Christmas, and both share the Authority's main line, 561-697-2700.
A remodel with roofing or tile will likely head to the landfill, while a household cleanout may stay at the transfer station. Your account manager will confirm where your load is going and explain the fees before delivery.
