Lawrence County Landfill is the county landfill serving Lawrenceburg and nearby areas. Locals and small haulers use it when trash, construction debris, or large items need to be buried rather than taken to a convenience center.
Drive up to an entrance booth and then across a weigh scale-this place charges tipping fees by weight, so expect to stop both coming in and going out. The site is large and open, with rows of compacted cells and areas where trucks pull up to tip loads. Commercial loads are accepted, and enough space is laid out for dump trucks and trailers to maneuver. Weekends, especially during spring cleanup, can get backed up and slow-moving.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure and tarp loads before getting to the gate so debris doesn’t blow out while driving through the site.
- Sort big items and recyclables in the truck beforehand to speed unloading at the tip area and avoid extra trips.
- If hauling for a business, have any account or load paperwork handy and plan for potential weekend lines-early weekday runs are usually quicker.
