Summit County Henefer Landfill

Small county landfill out on the Henefer road, mostly used by local residents and some commercial haulers from the surrounding valleys. The site handles the usual bury-and-cover operations at a modest scale, so expect a working-feel rather than a polished transfer station. It's the place trucks bring loads to be buried, not a drop-off recycling center.

Drive up a short access road to a gate and a weigh scale; loads are weighed and charged by weight with a minimum charge common at these kinds of sites. There’s a single entrance lane that leads to a tipping area and visible working cells where soil covers are placed; it looks dusty in dry weather and boots and closed-back shoes are a good idea. Pull into the scale house lane first, then follow the flow to the tip face-trucks will often circle back to be weighed out. Expect basic, functional surroundings: dirt, compacted berms, and heavy equipment moving around.
