landfill

A large area formed by piling up waste material.

A landfill is any area on land which owes its shape to, or is currently being formed by, stacked refuse material. The material can be garbage, rubble, or other waste materials. The piled up material can be deposited in an excavated pit or on top of unaltered land.

The usage for a landfill is typically some sort of waste depository (such as a garbage dump) until it is sealed over (if ever), at which time it may switch to some different usage (such as recreation) if the upper surface is adapted for it.
