Transfer Station
Waste Management Sutro Transfer Station
3000 US-50, Dayton, NV 89403
Small, functional transfer station serving Dayton residents, local contractors and haulers who don't want to drive all the way to a distant landfill. It handles loads that get compacted and shipped out on larger trucks, so expect a working, no-frills site rather than a fancy drop-off.
Drive up to a single-lane entrance with a small booth and a scale; vehicles normally stop there before moving on. After the booth, pull into lanes that lead to an open tipping area and large compactors or roll-off containers, with commercial trucks coming and going. The site is exposed - Nevada heat and dust are noticeable in summer and gusty winds can kick up debris. Lines build on weekends and during seasonal cleanups, so plan for a wait if traffic is heavy.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loads with tarps or tiedowns; wind in the high desert can blow loose material off trucks.
- Sort and stage items in the truck bed or trailer before pulling up so unloading goes faster once at the tipping area.
- Try to go earlier in the morning on warm days to avoid working in the heat, and expect longer waits on weekend mornings and during spring cleanup season.
