Recycling in Layton: A Local Guide
Layton, Utah hosts the Wasatch Integrated Waste Management District's main campus at 1997 East 3500 North — the solid waste hub for all of Davis and Morgan Counties. Three facilities share this address and an adjacent site, serving residents with disposal, recycling, and hazardous waste services six days a week.
The Wasatch Integrated Waste Management District is the governing authority, overseeing the full campus. Davis Landfill accepts household waste and large items from the public; in-district residents pay a $10 flat fee for loads up to 10,000 pounds with proof of residency. The same campus offers a free Household Hazardous Waste drop-off for Davis and Morgan County residents (excluding Bountiful City, which runs its own program) — accepting paints, pesticides, aerosols, motor oil, antifreeze, batteries, and cleaning supplies. The landfill is open Monday through Saturday, 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM in summer (daylight saving) and 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM in winter.
The Material Recovery and Transfer Facility (MRTF) at 3404 N 650 E — accessible from Highway 193 or Fairfield Road — is a commercial-scale MRF capable of processing 40 tons per hour of solid waste or 15 tons per hour of single-stream recyclables. It is not open to the public for drop-off. Residents recycle through their city's curbside hauler contract; the MRTF receives those collected materials for sorting and processing. Facility tours are available Monday–Friday by appointment by calling (801) 614-5600.
Curbside recycling in Layton handles clean cardboard, aluminum cans, steel cans, plastic #1 water bottles (caps off), and plastic #2 milk jugs and detergent bottles. Items outside this list — including hazardous materials and electronics — go to the HHW/e-waste drop-off at the main campus. Nearby Davis County cities with recycling resources include Ogden, Clearfield, North Salt Lake, and Murray. See all Utah recycling centers.
