Millard County Landfill

5784 E 2160 S, Delta, UT 84624

(435) 864-2297

A county landfill just outside Delta that handles the final burial of municipal and commercial trash. Locals, contractors, and haulers drop off loads here; it’s the kind of place used when curbside or transfer options aren’t available.

There’s a scale and a small entrance booth where vehicles stop to be weighed, so plan to pull up and wait a moment. Trucks and trailers drive up to the working face where material is tipped and covered; the site is broad, dusty and exposed - typical of central Utah’s dry climate. Expect heavy equipment moving around and a few different lanes for incoming traffic and outbound weighing. Tipping fees are charged (often by weight), and commercial loads are accepted, so larger trucks are common.

Before You Go

  • Secure and tarp loose loads: wind and dust pick up fast in this area, and loose material can scatter down the access road.
  • Allow extra time on weekends and during spring cleanup - lines to the scale can form and things move slower when lots of people come at once.
  • Drive slowly inside the site and watch for heavy equipment; pull all the way forward when instructed to keep traffic moving and get a clear weight reading.
