Yuma AZ Dump — Yuma County Transfer Stations, Hours & Rules
Yuma residents drop off trash at Yuma County's transfer stations. The main one, North Gila Valley, is open seven days a week, and the County opened a new South Transfer Station near Somerton in August 2026. Each allows one load per customer per day. Commercial and oversize loads go to the South Yuma County Landfill instead.
The City of Yuma picks up trash and recycling weekly and runs a once-a-year Neighborhood Clean-up for bulky items, but it doesn't run a drop-off site of its own.
City of Yuma pickup, Neighborhood Clean-up and hazardous waste
The City collects one 90-gallon garbage cart and one 90-gallon recycling cart a week. For fiscal 2027 the residential collection fee is set to rise to $8.36 a month and the environmental fee to $8.65 a month.
Once a year, the Neighborhood Clean-up picks up bulky items area by area, Monday to Thursday: refrigerators, stoves, washers, furniture, large boxes, mattresses, carpet, electronics, tires (no rims) and bagged lawn clippings. It's only for City residents paying the environmental fee; check the City's map for your area's week, and don't block the sidewalk.
Household hazardous waste is collected at three free events a year at the Public Works Facility, 1473 S. 2nd Avenue, 8 a.m. to noon — in 2026, January 10, April 11 and November 14. They're open to all City of Yuma and Yuma County residents. Questions: (928) 373-4500.
All Yuma County transfer stations and the tire facility close on New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr./Civil Rights Day, Presidents Day, Memorial Day, July 4, Labor Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving and the day after, and Christmas.
