Very disruptive. Landfills typically bury the day's trash at the end of the day and it's just layers and layers of garbage, like lasagna. You might be able to work on Monday's trash slice, but by the time Thursday rolls around, it's time to add a layer on top of Monday.

Digging could interrupt the entire landfill process if it's still an active landfill, meaning the daily garbage has to be redirected elsewhere, because landfills aren't just a hole in the ground, they are a feat of engineering.
