Construction Debris: What You Can (and Can't) Take to the Dump
Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.
Read more →Tekoi Landfill is the burial site out on Skull Valley Road near Dugway, where local trash gets hauled to be buried. Residents and commercial haulers both use it, so expect everything from pickup loads to larger trucks. Fees and what can be accepted vary by location and are set at the facility level, so prices change depending on weight and type of load.
There’s an entrance booth and a scale-drivers are weighed and tipping fees are charged by weight, so be ready to stop on the scale coming in and again leaving. After check-in, vehicles are sent to dumping zones in a large open dirt area with visible trash piles and rolling berms. Commercial trucks are accepted, so the yard can feel busy and the traffic mix includes both small trailers and bigger haulers. Weekends and spring cleanup periods tend to back things up, so lines and slow-moving traffic are common.
