Summit County Landfill is the county dump that takes what gets buried - used by local homeowners cleaning out garages and by contractors with big hauls. It's listed for the Keystone area but sits down on Landfill Road in Dillon, so expect mountain-country driving to get there. The site looks working and industrial, not like a tidy transfer station.
Pull up to an entrance area and be ready for a scale; tipping fees are handled by weight, so there’s usually a weigh-in and a weigh-out. The property is large with gravel roads, mounded cells of compacted material and heavy equipment moving around, so watch for dump trucks and loaders. County and commercial loads are common, and commercial vehicles are treated differently than small residential drop-offs. Weekends and spring cleanup times can back up into a line at the scale, so expect a wait during busy periods.
