Landfill decreases two disposal fees

Bringing waste to the Mesa County Landfill will become more affordable as the Mesa County Commission on Jan. 28 unanimously passed a resolution for the Mesa County Solid Waste Management Division to decrease two waste disposal fees.

Mesa County Solid Waste reduced the compacted waste disposal fee at the Mesa County Landfill, 3071 U.S. 50 in Grand Junction, from $42 per ton to $30 per ton, and the loose waste disposal fee will drop from $51 per ton to $32 per ton. Fee changes went into effect Feb. 3.
