Landfill
Coral Creek Landfill
Coral Creek Landfill, 721 Coral Creek Road, Baker, 59313, Montana
Small working landfill out on Coral Creek Road that folks from Baker and surrounding ranches use for household cleanups and commercial hauls. It’s the place trash gets buried rather than recycled, so expect a big open site with trucks coming and going.
Drive in off 721 Coral Creek Road and there’s a small entrance booth and a scale you’ll cross - tipping fees are charged by weight, so plan for a weigh-in. After checking in at the booth, roll up on gravel roads toward the active dumping area where there are large dirt cells and machinery working the piles. Commercial trucks are common here, so don’t be surprised by long rigs and heavy equipment moving around. Weekends and spring cleanup time can be busy, and the site itself is dusty and utilitarian rather than tidy.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure and cover loads before leaving home - dusty gravel roads and wind will make an uncovered load a nuisance.
- Bring sturdy shoes or boots and a pair of work gloves; the ground is uneven and a bit dirty near the dumping area.
- Leave extra time on weekends or during spring cleanup season since lines at the booth and the scale can form.
