Millard County Landfill

Small county landfill just off US‑50 that most locals - homeowners, small contractors, and farm trucks - use when regular pickup won’t cut it. It’s the place where trash gets buried, not recycled, and commercial vehicles come through as well. In this part of Utah the dry, dusty conditions mean the site looks bare and packed rather than green or treed.

Drive up to a gate/booth at the road and be prepared to stop for a scale; charges are typically by weight so expect to weigh in and weigh out. Pull past the booth where trucks and trailers fan out toward the active tipping face; larger commercial loads are handled alongside residential drop-offs. The working area is mostly dirt and compacted cells, with dust kicked up on windy days and dusty tire tracks leading to the tipping mound. Recycling bins or separate drop points, if present, are usually off to one side near the entrance rather than among the active burial cells.
