Bay View Land Fill is the small county landfill just off UT‑68 in Elberta that locals use for household and small construction loads. Trucks and pickups from around the valley and the surrounding rural areas turn up here, especially on weekends and during spring cleanup season.
There’s an entrance booth and a scale as part of the drive in, so be prepared to slow down and stop. The site is an open, working landfill with dirt roads and large piles of compacted material; things get dusty in Utah’s dry weather, so dusty clothes and a dirty truck are likely. Pull up to the tipping area when directed, unload, and then drive back over the scale on the way out. Lines form on busy Saturdays, and larger trucks take longer to get through.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure tarps and loose items before leaving home - dust and wind are real out there and loose debris can blow off on the drive in.
- Wear sturdy shoes and gloves; surfaces are uneven and there’s loose gravel and steep ramps in places.
- Aim for early or late in the day on weekends to avoid the longest lines, and have the truck’s bed ready to unload so the stop is quick.
