Southern Idaho Solid Waste in Burley is the local spot for dropping off household trash, yard debris, and common recyclables. Folks from around the county swing by when cleaning up the yard or clearing out a garage.
Pull in to a gravel lot where an entrance booth greets vehicles and directs traffic; expect to stop there before heading to drop-off areas. A scale is often on-site, so the drive typically includes a stop when coming and another when leaving. The site looks like a working landfill/transfer area with roll-off containers, piles of green waste, and semi trucks moving around; bring a vehicle that can handle rough surfaces. Lines form on weekends and during spring cleanup, so plan for short waits at peak times.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure and tarp loads so debris doesn’t blow out while driving through the site.
- Sort recyclables and metal out at home to speed up the drop-off process once at the facility.
- Arrive early on busy days (weekends, spring cleanup) to avoid longer lines and tighter parking.
