Leavenworth County Solid Waste

Leavenworth County Solid Waste in Lansing is the local solid-waste drop-off for residents around Leavenworth County and nearby rural areas. It handles general household trash and usually offers recycling and yard-waste options alongside regular disposal. Expect a county-run setup rather than a retail recycling center.

Drive up to a marked entrance and follow the lane toward the main collection area; many county facilities have an entrance booth and a scale, so be prepared to slow down. Containers and piles for different materials are grouped out on an open lot with heavy equipment moving around, and recycling bins are commonly placed off to one side. Weekend traffic and seasonal cleanups can create short lines, and vehicles can pull up close to drop-off points but may need to wait for an attendant to direct where to go. Signage will point out where to leave specific items, and the site looks more like an industrial yard than a retail center.
