The aim of this study is the detailed assessment of the impact of a solid municipal waste landfill on its adjacent land. The contents of heavy metals and some major components in soils at the SMW landfill boundary and in the sanitary protection zone were determined by potentiometry and atomic absorption spectroscopy. It was established that the actual concentration values in soil are significantly higher than the standard limits.
