Cheyenne Wells City Landfill

151 S 1st St W, Cheyenne Wells, CO 80810

(719) 767-5099

Small-town landfill just off 1st Street West in Cheyenne Wells. Locals and haulers drop residential and commercial loads here; it's the sort of place used when trash won't fit in the curbside bin. The site looks like a working dump rather than a civic park-practical and no-frills.

Drive up to a small entrance booth and drive past a scale-loads are typically weighed and tipping fees are charged by weight, so expect to stop twice if bringing a truck. The working face and rows of compacted cells are visible from the access road, with recycling or drop-off bins usually set aside near the entrance. Lines form on weekends and during spring cleanups, so there can be a wait; bring something to tie down debris and be prepared to shuffle trailers or separate bulky items before getting to the drop point.

Before You Go

  • Secure tarps and tie-downs so loose trash doesn’t blow out while waiting in line.
  • Load larger items so they can be offloaded quickly-separate metal, tires, or bulk brush if possible to speed the process.
  • Plan for weekend crowds; arriving early on a weekday will usually get you through faster.
