Cheyenne Landfill

1461 Happy Jack Rd, Cheyenne, WY 82009

(307) 632-8315

Cheyenne Landfill on Happy Jack Road is the county landfill that most locals and local haulers use when they need to bury household or business trash. It’s out where the city thins out, so expect it to serve people from across a wide area rather than just the neighborhood next door.

Drive up to an entrance booth and you’ll see a scale you have to cross - tipping fees are charged by weight, so there’s usually a stop on the way in and one on the way out. The site is large and mostly open, with compacted dirt roads, piles of covered material, and heavy equipment moving around; pull up where staff direct vehicles and be prepared to wait if a truck is dumping. Commercial haulers are commonly on site alongside residential vehicles, so the stream of traffic can be different than a small drop-off facility. Expect a basic, working-yard look rather than anything polished - bring what you need to secure and tarp loads against wind before entering.

Before You Go

  • Have vehicle ID or proof of residency handy in case it’s requested at the gate.
  • Tarp and tie down loose material before getting on Happy Jack Road; wind can blow things out of pickup beds.
  • Allow extra time on weekend mornings and during spring cleanup - lines and wait times are noticeably longer then.
