Built byContractors.

We got into this business because we'd been on the other side of it — waiting around, getting the runaround, paying too much. Mud Dawgs is the dump site we wished existed.

Our Story

The Idea Was Simple.
So Is the Business.

If you run a hydrovac crew in Colorado Springs, you know the drill: finish the job, then spend half your afternoon figuring out where to dump the spoils. Drive across town. Wait in line. Pay whatever they feel like charging that day. Then do it all again tomorrow.

Mud Dawgs started with a straightforward observation — there wasn't a purpose-built, contractor-friendly dump site in this market that treated hydrovac disposal as a real service rather than an afterthought. So we built one. Then we built a second one to cover the other half of the city.

We set flat rates because contractors deserve to know what something costs before they pull in. We opened trade accounts because your drivers shouldn't need to carry cash or a card on every run. We built an RFID system because your crews work before 7am and after 5pm, and a dump site that closes when the work doesn't isn't actually a solution.

The model is simple: you bring it, we take it. No surprises on the ticket. No waiting on a call back. Just a place to dump your load, a receipt in hand, and back on the road.

What We Stand For

How We Run
the Operation.

🏷️
Flat Rates, Always

Two prices. One variable: your truck size. 500 gallons is the cut-off. You know the rate before you pull in — no weight ticket surprises, no after-hours premium.

🕐
Built for Your Hours

Construction doesn't punch a clock. RFID windshield tags give trade account holders gate access at any hour, any day, no staff required.

🧾
Receipt on Every Dump

Our unmanned kiosk logs every load and issues a receipt at time of dump — not emailed three days later. Your drivers leave with documentation in hand.

📍
Two Locations on Purpose

North Colorado Springs and south — because one site in the middle doesn't actually save anyone time.

🤝
Trade Accounts, Not Transactions

Bi-monthly consolidated invoicing on Net 15 terms, RFID access, and a single point of contact — not cash at the gate on every run.

🐾
No Nonsense

We accept organic hydrovac spoils, we charge a flat rate, and we get you in and out fast. We do it well because we don't try to do everything.

Everything you need to know about dumping at Mud Dawgs — pricing, access, accounts, and what we do and don't accept.

💰 Pricing
How much does it cost to dump?▼
Two prices — that's it. Large vac trucks (over 500 gallons) are $150 per load. Small vac trucks and trailers (500 gallons or under) are $85 per load. Flat rate regardless of how full the truck is.
Are there any weight charges, fuel surcharges, or hidden fees?▼
No. Flat rate means flat rate. No weight ticket, no fuel surcharge, no after-hours premium, no disposal fee on top of the dump fee.
How do I know if my truck counts as "large" or "small"?▼
The cut-off is 500 gallons.

Large ($150): Any vac truck over 500 gallons — full-size hydrovac trucks and combination vac units.

Small ($85): Any vac truck 500 gallons or under — smaller vac units, trailer-mounted systems, and mini combo trucks.

Not sure? Call us at 719-400-1997 before you make the trip.
Can I pay cash or card on-site?▼
During staffed hours you can pay on-site. For regular users, a trade account gives your drivers bi-monthly consolidated invoicing — no payment needed at the gate.
✅ What We Accept
What material do you accept?▼
Both locations: Organic hydrovac spoils — the slurry and soil material generated by hydrovac and vacuum excavation operations.

North location (Sterling Ranch) only: We also accept concrete, asphalt, rock, and fill dirt at the Sterling Ranch site. Call us to confirm availability before making the trip.
What material do you NOT accept?▼
We do not accept:
  • Hazardous or chemically contaminated material
  • Industrial waste or process byproducts
  • Sewage or sanitary waste
  • Material requiring RCRA special handling
If unsure, call us before making the trip.
Do I need to pre-screen or pre-approve my material?▼
For standard organic hydrovac spoils from typical excavation work — no pre-approval needed. If your material is from a site with known contamination or environmental monitoring, call us first.
🕐 Hours & Access
What are your staffed hours?▼
Monday through Saturday, 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM at both the North and South locations.
Can I dump outside of staffed hours?▼
Yes — trade account holders with RFID windshield tags have gate access 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The unmanned kiosk handles gate access, load logging, and receipt issuance. Open a trade account here.
Are both locations open the same hours?▼
Yes. Both sites operate the same staffed hours — Mon–Sat, 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM — with 24/7 RFID access for trade account holders at both locations.
🔑 RFID System
What's the difference between the windshield tag and the key fob?▼
Windshield tag: Mounted to your truck's windshield. Opens the gate automatically when you approach — no stopping, no fumbling. This is your 24/7 gate access credential.

Key fob: Used at the unmanned kiosk terminal after you dump. Driver taps the fob, the system logs the load to your account, and a receipt is issued on the spot. These are two separate credentials — the tag gets you in, the fob logs the dump.
How do I get RFID tags and fobs?▼
RFID credentials are issued at no charge when you open a trade account — one windshield tag and one key fob per registered vehicle. Submit your trade account application with your fleet information and credentials are issued within one business day of approval.
Can tags and fobs be shared between trucks or drivers?▼
No. Tags and fobs are assigned to specific registered vehicles and are not interchangeable. Each credential is tied to a single truck in your account — swapping tags or fobs between vehicles defeats the tracking system and causes incorrect load logging. Using credentials on unregistered trucks is a violation of account terms and will result in additional fees.
What happens if I lose or damage a tag or fob?▼
Contact us immediately and we'll deactivate the credential to prevent unauthorized use and issue a replacement promptly. A $5 replacement fee applies to lost or damaged windshield tags and key fobs. Initial credentials issued at account setup are provided at no charge.
Can I get tags for multiple trucks?▼
Yes. List all vehicles in your fleet on the trade account application. Each truck gets its own windshield tag and key fob at no charge. All loads are consolidated to your account and appear on a single bi-monthly invoice.
Do I get a receipt for every dump?▼
Yes. Every time your driver taps their key fob at the kiosk after dumping, the system generates a receipt — printed at the kiosk or emailed. Load date, time, location, and truck class are all captured automatically.
📋 Trade Accounts

How do I apply for a trade account?▼
Fill out the online application. It captures company info, billing details, fleet vehicles, credit references, and your RFID request. We review and respond within one business day.
Is there a cost to open a trade account?▼
No application or setup fee. One windshield tag and one key fob are issued for each registered vehicle at no charge. You pay for dumps at the flat rate only. Replacement credentials for lost or damaged tags and fobs are subject to a $5 fee per item.
How does invoicing work for trade accounts?▼
All dumps across all trucks and both locations are consolidated into a bi-monthly invoice with a complete load-by-load breakdown. Terms are Net 15. Payment options include ACH, check, and card.
