Small county facility out on Landfill Road in Salmon that handles household trash, yard debris and typical solid waste from the area. Locals, ranches and folks doing spring cleanups use it; expect a working, no-frills site rather than a polished recycling center.
Drive up to a basic entrance booth and be prepared to stop so staff can direct where to pull in. A scale and a tipping area are common at sites like this, so vehicles may need to back up or drive through after unloading. Recycling bins are often off to the side, with larger piles or compactors farther in; the whole place looks like a functional landfill rather than a landscaped lot. Weekends and seasonal cleanup times usually bring a line, and vehicles with trailers need a bit more room to maneuver.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loads with tarps and straps; loose debris blows around and makes unloading harder.
- Sort recyclables and bulky items at home as much as possible so unloading goes quicker.
- Avoid peak weekend times if possible-early mornings on weekdays usually move faster.
