Lawrence County Solid Waste

Lawrence County Solid Waste in Bedford is the county-run spot for dropping off household trash, recyclables and yard debris. Locals, landscapers and anyone hauling a full load tend to use it when doing a big cleanout or yard work. It sits at the county complex and looks like a typical small-scale transfer/convenience center rather than a big regional landfill.

There is usually an entrance booth and a drive-up area where vehicles line up to be directed; expect to stop and pull up to a window or attendant point before proceeding. A scale or weigh station is commonly part of the flow at county facilities, so traffic may stop again on the way out. The site is mostly open pavement with piles or containers set off to the sides, and recycling or drop-off containers are often grouped near the main drive. Weekends, especially during spring cleanup, tend to be busier and movement through the site can slow.
