Belle Fourche Landfill

Small regional landfill on the north edge of Belle Fourche that handles residential and commercial loads from several surrounding counties. Locals and haulers both use it - it’s the place trucks head when curbside or transfer services aren’t available. Don’t expect anything fancy; it’s a working landfill with long drives and open cells.

There’s a scale and a little entrance booth near the driveway - vehicles pull up, get weighed, then drive out to the tipping area and come back across the scale to get a final weight. Fees are assessed by weight, so commercial loads are processed there alongside household drop-offs. The site looks like a typical rural landfill: gravel roads, compacted dirt working faces, and rows of covered cells rather than neat bins. Weekends and spring cleanups get busier, so lines at the scale can form.
