How disposal works in Alaska
Alaska's boroughs run its big disposal systems, and prices vary widely: household trash is free on the Kenai Peninsula and for residential loads in Fairbanks, $10 to $27 a load in Anchorage and $3 a bag in Mat-Su, while Ketchikan charges $255.72 a ton.
Off the road system, the village landfill is usually the only option. The finder lists the active community landfills Alaska DEC regulates, from Utqiaġvik to Unalaska.
