(260) 724-9971A county solid waste site in Decatur for homeowners hauling household trash, yard debris and recyclables. Locals use it for drop-offs that won’t fit in curbside cans or for larger cleanups. The site sits at 3775 N 200 E and looks like the typical county transfer spot rather than a private business.
There’s an entrance booth where vehicles pull up to check in and where transactions are handled. Drive slowly through a wide gravel or paved lane toward the collection areas; the recycling containers are usually grouped together and yard waste piles are off to one side. Expect a handful of separate bays or roll-off containers rather than a single dumpster, and plan for a short stop to sort loads before dumping. Weekends and spring-cleaning times commonly get busier, so lines can form out onto the access road.
