It will cost you a few more bucks to dispose of your trash.
Park County Landfills has announced their minimum fee use will increase to $5 dollars for all load deliver to the regional landfills in Cody, Powell, and Clark. Even loads previously accepted for free will be charged.
That being said, there will be some fixed standards moving forward. Loads consisting of brush, metal, oil, batteries and domestic animals will have just the $5 dollar fee applied, regardless of quantity. If a load’s charge exceeds $5 dollars, that cost will be absorbed into rather than in additional to the final cost of the load. And if the minimum isn’t reached, an additional entry will be added to the gate ticket to bring it up to but not exceeding $5 dollars.
These changes will be the new normal, effective March 1st of this year. Any questions? Give the Park County Landfills a call or send them an email at landfill@parkcounty.us.
