A modest disposal site that handles household and yard trash for Boulder City residents. Close enough for a quick drop-off on the way to or from town, it sees a steady stream from locals rather than large commercial haulers.
There's a small entrance booth and a couple of pull-up lanes where vehicles stop before heading into the tipping area. Expect open, dusty yards and piles of compacted material - typical Nevada desert surroundings with sun and wind making things dry. Vehicles usually drive up to a scale area and then back out after unloading, so plan for a short wait if someone else is using the lanes. Recycling containers sit off to the side near the entrance, separate from the main disposal pits.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Bring a tarp or cover for loose items; wind in the desert can scatter lighter debris while maneuvering around the site.
- Use a pickup or trailer with an easy tailgate setup - maneuvering into the tipping area is simpler with a compact load to toss out.
- Avoid the busiest weekend hours if possible; local cleanup days and spring projects tend to create lines at the booth and scales.
