Payson Solid Waste Department

Payson Solid Waste Department is the local municipal drop-off for household trash, recycling and yard debris for Payson residents. Used mostly by homeowners and small haulers, it’s the kind of place people visit when cleaning out a garage or trimming the yard. Expect a working, outdoor facility rather than a polished retail site.

Drive in from W Utah Ave and follow the drive toward the open tipping and container areas; vehicles of all sizes come through, from cars with trailers to pickup trucks. The site is exposed and dry - gravel, dirt and some loose material are common, so there’s often dust when vehicles move. Look for separate piles or containers for different materials and spots to pull up and unload; larger items may sit in open-air bays or piles rather than inside buildings. Weekends and spring cleanup times are noticeably busier, so lines and short waits are normal then.
