Sanitary landfill is one of the most practical and major methods of urban waste disposal, which is mostly used in the urban waste management system to prevent negative environmental consequences. For this purpose, sitting the suitable place to landfill urban waste is very important. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to determine the optimal place for sanitary landfill of Andimeshk waste. After preparing the information layers of the criteria in the GIS environment, the layers were standardized and dimensionless using fuzzy membership functions, then the weighting of the criteria was done using Chang's FAHP method, and in the last step, the layers were combined using the WLC method. After combining the layers, the final map was classified into three suggested categories: suitable, relatively suitable and unsuitable. The result was that in the FAHP method, 23% of the studied area was identified as a suitable class for location. Also, an area equal to 38% of the area was found to be relatively suitable and an area equal to 39% of the area was found to be inappropriate in terms of the burial potential.
