City of Casper Regional Solid Waste Facility

The city of Casper operates a state of the art solid waste facility. The city bales residential and commercial trash from all over Natrona County and Wyoming. The facility includes the baler building, landfill, and compost yard. The facility is also home to one of Casper’s nine recycling depots and accepts electronics  and metals for recycling.


IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!

Starting Tuesday, August 11th, the Solid Waste Facility will close
at 2:30 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays for the remainder of 2020.
 

The reduced hours are part of the City of Casper’s effort to reduce costs due to reductions in revenues.  City of Casper garbage collection services are not affected. 

In response to falling revenues, Casper City Council approved a furlough plan requiring all city employees to take an average of 32 hours of unpaid leave hours by December 31, 2020, and it reduced overtime as part of the 2020-2021 fiscal year budget. “The Solid Waste Facility will lose approximately 24 hours of employee labor per week,” explained Solid Waste Manager Cindie Langston. “We looked at several options to handle reduced labor hours and still complete the daily waste cover and litter pickup at the facility required by our Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality landfill permit.” According to Langston, closing early two days a week will allow staff to complete the permit work without using overtime. “We tried to select the days that would be the least inconvenient for Casper residents,” continued Langston.

The facility did not change its other residential summer weekday hours effective through September 30th. It opens at 7:30 a.m. Monday through Saturday and closes at 5:30 p.m. on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

These extended hours are still reserved for Residential Customers only! 
The Compost Yard and C & D Drop Off Bins are the only areas that will be open.

  • Monday           7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
