Clinton County Landfill

Clinton County Landfill is the county landfill on State Road 39 in Frankfort where everyday trash and commercial loads end up being buried. People from town and haulers from around the county bring bulk trash, pickups and trailers here. The Indiana Department of Environmental Management oversees facilities like this at the state level, while the county runs the site itself.

There’s a scale near the entrance and tipping fees are calculated by weight, so expect to stop for weighing. Pull up to the entrance booth or scale area, then follow the traffic flow toward the active dumping face where heavy equipment is working. The site looks like open cells and compacted dirt piles with loaders and dozers moving trash - keep a comfortable distance from the machinery. Commercial loads are handled here, and they typically have a different fee structure than small residential loads.
