Waste Facility
Republic Services of Idaho
4707 Highway 30 East, Mountain Home, ID 83647
(208) 345-1265Small transfer-station feel on the east side of Highway 30, Republic Services of Idaho handles local drop-off and disposal for folks around New Plymouth and nearby Mountain Home. It’s the kind of place residents swing by with a pickup or trailer when household cleanups pile up.
Drive in from Highway 30 to the fenced yard and look for the entrance booth and the main scale area - there’s usually a pull-up lane so vehicles can stop to check in. The site is mostly gravel and pavement with large roll-off containers and a tipping area; bring help to unload if the load is heavy. Lines form on weekend mornings and during spring cleanup, so expect a wait then. Watch for trucks moving around the yard and give them plenty of space when pulling up to the drop-off point.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring straps or a tarp to keep loose loads from blowing out while driving; loose debris is a messy hassle for everyone.
- If hauling a trailer, know its height and be ready to back up - the tipping area is open and sometimes tight with other vehicles around.
- Save time by sorting bulky items at home as much as possible so unloading at the site goes faster.
