Stillwater County Solid Waste District Collection Sites & Fees
The Stillwater County Solid Waste District was formed 30 years ago to provide a system where residents could work together to provide solid waste disposal services. The District is managed by a Solid Waste Board whose members are appointed by the Stillwater County Commissioners. The Board meets on the second Thursday of the month with their concerns.
Each household within the county is charged $146 annually to use the district solid waste system. For this price, all household garbage considered non-hazardous is accepted for disposal. Small fees are imposed at staffed collection sites for large items such as tires or construction debris.
Once collected, solid waste is transported to the City of Billings landfill. Federal regulations and supected ground water contamination forced the closure of the Stillwater County landfill.
