Waste Facility
Jefferson County CR
Jefferson County CR-138 MSWL, 1619 Mennonite Church Road, Louisville, 30434, Georgia
Jefferson County CR is the small county landfill off Mennonite Church Road in Louisville, used by local residents and haulers for household trash and bulky pickups. It looks like a working yard more than a tidy public lot - pickup trucks and trailers are the norm here.
Pull up through a single-lane entrance to a booth and a steel scale pad where vehicles stop before heading in. The site is mostly dirt and gravel with open tipping spots and heavy equipment moving around, so watch for dust, mud, and machinery. Recycling or drop-off containers are usually grouped toward the front while disposal areas sit further in. Weekends and spring-cleanup season see the longest lines, so expect a wait at busy times.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure and tarp loose loads; wind and the drive in will blow out light debris if things aren't tied down.
- Wear sturdy shoes and gloves - surfaces get slippery after rain and lifting odd items is common.
- Avoid weekends and known cleanup weekends if possible; lines form quickly and turnaround can take extra time.
