Lincoln County runs three landfills: Libby at 2501 Pipe Creek Road (Monday to Saturday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. in summer), Eureka on Airport Road and Troy on Dump Road, plus green box sites for household garbage around the county.
Most household waste is free at the gate, because the landfills run on the $200-a-unit refuse assessment on property taxes. You pay for construction debris ($12 a cubic yard, sorted), tires, stumps and appliances with Freon.

Every Montana rate we've verified is side by side in our guide to what it costs to dump in Montana.
Every load on a county road has to be tarped or tied down. A strong, secured tarp or canvas works; topping the load with a loose mattress, plywood or pallets doesn't, and can lids must be secured. Uncovered loads pay $48 at the gate.
