Yes and No. If you would like to bring materials with known asbestos components to the landfill you must call ahead for instruction specific to your situation. There are certain steps that must be taken before dumping the material, and there is a limit on the amount of material the landfill can accept at any one time.

There is no fee for residential waste from Beaverhead County residents. The landfill and the canister sites around the county are intended for Beaverhead County residents only. If the load is more than just a load of household garbage (i.e. commercial demolition) the load must be weighed and a fee must be paid at the solid waste office in the courthouse. If you’re unsure if this will apply to your load, please call the solid waste office to confirm.

Old paint may be disposed of as long as it is in containers that are 5 gallons or less.

Yes.  Please dump yard debris in the designated area for yard/garden materials.  DO NOT dump any other materials in this pile.

Yes.   Montana was one of the leading states to enact junk vehicle legislation.  Its primary purpose is to control junk vehicles from being scattered throughout the countryside, thereby helping to preserve the beauty of our state.  This program also provides for the recycling of the junk vehicles collected so that this valuable resource may be utilized again.  This program is paid for from the small fee you are assessed when you license your vehicle.  The benefits of this program are available to all Montanans and you are encouraged to use them.

Beaverhead County has a Junk Vehicle program.  Vehicles are hauled to the County Landfill and stored in a graveyard.  When we get a certain amount of vehicles, they are crushed and recycled.
