Waste Management - Cottonwood Hills Landfill and Hauling

Small but active landfill on the outskirts of Marissa, used by local residents and commercial haulers who need a final disposal site. It’s the kind of place where municipal garbage and big roll-offs both end up, so expect a mix of pick-ups and semi trucks coming and going.

There’s an entrance booth and a scale - vehicles are weighed so loads are billed by weight, and drivers usually have to stop twice. Pull up through the lane to the scale, follow directions from the attendant at the booth, then proceed to the tipping area where the refuse is buried. The site is large and open, with gravel drives and visible landfill faces; put the biggest, heaviest stuff on last so it’s easier to maneuver when dumping.
