The Leichner Landfill is a 90-acre closed site located in south-central Clark County. By court order, it is maintained by the county to ensure the health and safety of the public through regular monitoring of methane gas, emissions and groundwater quality.

The landfill accepted municipal solid waste and some construction and demolition debris from 1937 until closing operations in December 31, 1991. Previously owned and operated by the Leichner Brothers Land Reclamation Company, the county purchased Leichner Landfill in 2012 and in 2019 sold 30-acres to the City of Vancouver for a public works operations campus.
