Construction Debris: What You Can (and Can't) Take to the Dump

Republic Services Clinton County Landfill is the large regional landfill on IN-39 that handles the final burial of municipal and commercial trash. Local residents and haulers drop off everything from household cleanup loads to commercial truckloads here. It’s the kind of place people use when a county convenience center won’t do the job.
There’s a scale you’ll cross coming in and again on the way out - tipping fees are charged by weight, so expect to stop twice. A small entrance booth controls traffic, then the site opens up into a working landfill with rows of compacted cells and cover soil areas. Commercial trucks are accepted, so large rigs are common and can slow traffic on busy days. The site looks industrial: heavy equipment, dusty roads, and piles of cover material rather than tidy recycling bins.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure loose material with a tarp; wind and passing trucks can send debris everywhere on site.
- Bring everything packed so it can be unloaded quickly-drivers often direct where to dump, and speeding through the process keeps lines moving.
- Avoid weekend mornings during spring cleanup if possible; those are the busiest times and waits get noticeably longer.
