Other notes
- Rates are the county's "current landfill rates" on the landfill page.
- Tire rules changed in June 2026: under Utah DEQ protocol the landfill no longer takes more than 12 tires per resident per day and no longer takes commercial tire loads. The page still lists a $140 per ton commercial tire rate; commercial haulers should use the Utah Waste Tire Program to find a transporter or recycler.
- Also prohibited: contaminated soils and wood products containing creosote.
- Recyclables taken at the landfill: asphalt, concrete, tires, metal and batteries. Loads must be sorted for the landfill sections; staff can refuse loads that are improperly loaded or not covered.
- Stay in your vehicle at the scales; card payment is encouraged.
