(574) 223-9610Republic Services County Line Landfill in Argos is the big county landfill where household and commercial loads end up getting buried. Locals and small haulers use it when their regular drop-off won't take heavy or oversized stuff. It sits off Old US 31 and looks like a working site rather than a tidy transfer center.
There’s a scale near the entrance-loads are weighed and tipping fees are based on weight, so drivers stop there both coming in and going out. Pull up to an attendant booth for directions, then follow the gravel roads to the active cell; the place is large with bulldozers, berms, and rows of covered dirt sections. Recycling or drop-off bins, if present, are usually off to the side of the main access road. Weekends and spring cleanup times bring noticeably longer lines, while weekdays tend to move quicker.
