Get Directions

City of Elko Municipal Landfill at 2200 Pinion Road is the local spot where household and larger loads get buried. Truck drivers, homeowners with big cleanouts and small hauling businesses all use it when they need to drop off materials that won’t fit in regular curbside pickup.

Drive up and there’s a small entrance booth and a scale; loads are typically weighed and tipping fees are charged by weight or by load, so plan for a short stop to be weighed. The site is big and mostly dirt roads with open working faces-dusty in dry weather and a bit messy after rain. Pull up where staff direct you at the pad, unload where instructed, then go back over the scale on the way out for final weighing. Recycling or drop-off containers are usually located near the entrance area rather than out on the working face.

Before You Go

  • Tie down and tarp loose loads before getting on Pinion Road-wind and dust can make a mess if debris blows out.
  • Consolidate smaller trips into one load when possible since tipping fees are based on weight or load; multiple runs add up fast.
  • Expect lines on weekends and during spring cleanup-weekday mornings usually move faster if a quicker turnaround is important.
