Tooele County Solid Waste Management

2830 Bauer Rd, Tooele, UT 84074

(435) 843-4785

Tooele County Solid Waste Management on Bauer Rd is the county's main drop-off for household trash, yard debris and recyclables for folks in and around Tooele. People bring everything from a single pickup load to larger hauls during seasonal cleanups. Expect a working, no-frills facility rather than a customer-service center.

There’s an entrance booth and a drive-through layout where vehicles pull up, drop off, and then often cross a scale on the way out-sites like this commonly charge by weight, so plan for that. The yard is open, with large roll-off containers and piles of material; the lot is mostly gravel and can be dusty in dry weather. Recycling and yard-waste areas are separate from general trash, so drivers usually move between a couple of drop points rather than a single dumpster. Weekends and spring cleanup times get busy, with lines forming and trucks queuing up.

Before You Go

  • Sort materials at home so recyclables, yard waste and trash are separated before pulling up; it saves time and confusion at the drop points.
  • Secure loads with a tarp or straps-gravel access roads and wind can toss debris during the trip and while unloading.
  • Avoid late-morning weekends if possible; weekday mornings tend to move faster and have shorter lines.
