(859) 734-4754Harrodsburg/Mercer Co Recycling on Moberly Road is the county recycling center locals use when clearing out garages or straightening up after a move. It’s the kind of no-frills spot where people drop off paper, cardboard, plastics, glass and metal rather than stuffing everything into the trash.
This is a county-style recycling center, so expect a drive-up setup where vehicles pull in, get weighed at a scale/booth area, then move on to the big open containers to unload. Most centers like this have separate containers or trailers for paper/cardboard, plastics, glass and metals, and sometimes run special collection events for electronics or tires. Weekends and spring-cleanup days get the longest lines, so there can be a bit of waiting. The lot typically looks utilitarian - big bins, paved or gravel pads, and clear markings showing where to drop each material.
