Rumpke/Montgomery County Landfill

Rumpke/Montgomery County Landfill on Larison Road in Jeffersonville is the county landfill - the place locals and haulers take trash that will be buried. It’s a large-scale operation with the kind of setup where loads are weighed and tipping fees are charged. People bring anything from household piles to bigger commercial loads at sites like this.

When you get there, there’s an entrance booth and a scale up front so vehicles stop to be weighed; expect to drive over the scale again on the way out. After the booth, traffic is directed toward the active tipping area and the exposed cells and working faces are easy to spot - big mounds, gravel ramps, and heavy equipment moving around. Vehicles pull up, unload into the designated dumping area, then head back to the scale to complete the weigh-out and fee process. The whole site looks industrial rather than tidy: lots of trucks, compacted berms, and bare earth where new sections are being filled.
