Waste Facility
Town of Chester
Town of Chester, Dump Road, Chester, 59522, Montana
The Town of Chester waste site on Dump Road is where town residents and nearby ranches bring household trash and small loads. A small, no-frills community disposal spot rather than a big county facility. Mostly used by folks from Chester and the surrounding area for routine cleanouts and bulk items.
The drive in is a gravel lane that opens onto a modest lot with a few drop-off points and containers; not a paved transfer station. There may be a small entrance booth or a scale for larger trucks, so plan for a short stop at the gate. Pull up to the nearest drop-off spot and follow how others are flowing through; vehicles and pickup trucks are the usual sight. Expect dust in dry weather and mud after rain, so be ready to step out carefully if unloading.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loads with tarps or tie-downs so loose debris doesn't blow out on the road into town.
- Sort things into separate sections in the vehicle (metal, brush, general trash) before getting out to speed the drop-off process.
- Busy times include weekends and spring cleanup season; bring someone to help unload heavy or awkward items to move through quicker.
