Reno County MSWLandfill

Reno County MSWLandfill, 703 South Mohawk Road, Hutchinson, 67501, Kansas

Reno County MSWLandfill is the county landfill on South Mohawk Road in Hutchinson, where household and commercial trash gets buried. Farmers, contractors and local haulers all bring loads here; expect to see lots of big trucks and heavy equipment.

There’s an entrance booth and a scale, so vehicles are weighed and tipping fees are based on that weight - plan on stopping to be weighed in and then weighed out. After the scale drivers are routed to the active dumping area where dozers and loaders move material around; the site looks like big dirt cells and piles rather than a neat yard. Lines can form on busy days and traffic is mostly trucks and trailers, so give yourself extra time. Like most municipal solid-waste landfills, tipping fees are charged by weight (per-ton or per-load structures are common) and commercial loads are accepted.

Before You Go

  • Expect to stop at the scale both when you enter and when you leave - that’s how the tipping fee gets calculated, so allow a few extra minutes.
  • Make sure loads are tarped and tied down; loose trash or branches can spill and create extra mess and delays.
  • Watch for heavy equipment and follow flaggers or signs; weekends and spring-cleanup periods get the longest lines, so weekdays tend to move faster.
