Bonner County Solid Waste

119 Colburn Culver Rd, Sandpoint, ID 83864

(208) 263-0718

Bonner County Solid Waste is Sandpoint’s county-run drop-off for general household trash and common recyclables; locals and rural residents come here with full pickups or trailer loads. The site handles a mix of trash, recycling and yard debris, so expect a working, utilitarian place rather than anything fancy.

Drive in off Colburn Culver Road and look for the main entrance and vehicle flow - these county sites typically have a booth/scale area where vehicles pause and staff direct traffic. Recycling bins and yard-waste piles are usually grouped near the right or rear of the property, while roll-off containers and a tipping area take bulk loads. The surface is mostly gravel or compacted dirt, so it can be dusty or muddy depending on weather, and weekends or spring-cleaning times tend to be the busiest.

Before You Go

  • Sort recyclables and yard debris at home into separate piles or containers to save time once on site.
  • Bring a tarp or straps for loose loads; securing materials makes unloading quicker and avoids litter on the way in or out.
  • Avoid mid-morning weekends if possible - lines and wait times spike during peak spring and summer cleanup periods.
