Island Park Sanitary Landfill on Kilgore‑Yale Road is the local place people bring household trash and larger contractor loads from around Island Park. It’s a true landfill-material gets buried rather than processed on site. State agencies regulate these sites, so fees and what’s accepted can vary by location.
Think big open cells, dirt or gravel roads and regular truck traffic rather than a neat transfer station - this is where stuff gets buried. Most landfills of this type have an entrance booth and a scale; tipping fees are typically charged by weight (or sometimes by volume), and commercial loads usually have separate rates. Pull up to the scale or booth, get weighed, dump in the assigned area, then weigh out again - plan on a short stop for weighing. Spring and fall cleanup times tend to be busier and the access roads can get muddy after rain or snow.
