Landfill
Iron County/ Armstrong Pit Landfill
Iron County/ Armstrong Pit Landfill, 3127 N Iron Springs Road, Cedar City, 84720, Utah
Iron County/ Armstrong Pit Landfill is the county landfill out on N Iron Springs Road in Cedar City, where household and commercial trash gets buried. Neighbors, contractors and county crews drop off big loads here when a regular pickup won’t do.
The site is large and industrial-feeling: expect dirt roads, heavy equipment and piles of compacted trash and cover soil. There’s an entrance booth and a scale - tipping fees at places like this are usually charged by weight, so vehicles are weighed on the way out. Trucks and pickups get routed to the active dumping area; landfills of this scale commonly accept commercial loads and often have different fee tiers for them. Lines build up on weekends and during spring cleanup, so allow extra time.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure and tarp loose loads; wind and other trucks can scatter debris down the road.
- Load heavy items where they’ll be easiest to toss and save odd-shaped pieces for last to speed unloading.
- Try for a weekday morning if possible - weekends and spring cleanup times are the busiest.
