Spencer County Solid Waste

Small county solid waste site in Chrisney that handles general household trash, yard waste and some recycling - the sort of place locals use for weekend cleanups and projects. Drivers from Spencer County bring carloads and pickup trailers here rather than hauling to a regional landfill farther away.

A single entrance lane leads toward an attendant booth where vehicles typically stop before proceeding to drop-off points; plan to pull up and wait your turn if a line forms. The site feels utilitarian: large metal containers, piles for yard material, and open tipping areas rather than landscaped grounds. Traffic builds on weekends and during spring cleanup, so there can be a short line of pickups and cars. Bring a vehicle that can back up or maneuver around containers, since many drop-off spots require positioning close to the bin or tipping area.
