Waste in Teton County

Teton County, led by Teton County Integrated Solid Waste and Recycling (ISWR), is committed to reducing & diverting waste generated in Teton County from going to the landfill. In addition to providing these services, County facilities work to participate in all waste diversion programs wherever possible in our operations. 

Here is a list of some of our projects. Follow the links for more detailed information on our efforts.

Zero Waste

In September, 2014 the Teton County Commissioners adopted a Zero Waste Resolution with a goal of diverting 60% of Jackson's waste from the landfill by 2030. For more information, please see the Road to Zero Waste webpage.

Recycling

ISWR has a robust list of items that can be recycled. A map of recycling locations can be found here.

A list of recyclable options is also available on the website or by visiting the ChatBot on ISWR's website, Willow the Waste Wizard. Willow can answer any questions of What can be recycled in Teton County and Where it can be dropped off. 

Or check out our A-Z guide, 'What Goes Where? Trash Versus Recycling.'

Composting

ISWR has a composting facility at the Trash Transfer Station and food scraps are accepted. A commercial compost pickup route exists and businesses are invited to participate. Personal compost is accepted at the Recycling Center for a cost of $2.00 for a 5 gallon bucket. You can find more information by clicking here.
