Oneida County Sanitary Landfill

1750 N Old Hwy 191, Malad City, ID 83252

(208) 242-6282

Small county landfill that people from Malad City and surrounding ranch roads use when the transfer station isn't an option. Located on Old Hwy 191, this is where trash actually gets buried rather than dropped off for recycling or sorting. Expect to see pickup trucks, a few roll-off boxes and the occasional commercial hauler here.

Drive up the access road and there's a booth and scale you stop at - the site charges tipping fees based on weight or load size, so plan for a scale stop on the way in and out. The drop area is a big, dusty pad with compacted cells and machinery in the distance; bring a short ramp or be ready to back a trailer if needed. Recycling and bulky-item bins tend to be off to one side, and traffic can back up into the entrance on busy weekends or during spring cleanup. Dress for dust and sun - the ground is mostly gravel and dirt with little shade.

Before You Go

  • Have a tarp and straps ready for loose loads; wind can scatter debris and staff will expect loads secured.
  • Bring identification and any county paperwork that might be required for larger loads, especially commercial or contractor hauls.
  • Avoid peak times like weekend mornings during spring cleanup if possible; midweek tends to be quicker and less congested.
