Waste Management - Outer Loop Recycling & Disposal Facility

2673 Outer Loop, Louisville, KY 40219

(866) 909-4458

Small but busy recycling center on Outer Loop that locals drop off household recyclables and occasional bulky items. Neighbors, handy contractors, and folks cleaning out garages tend to use this spot. It’s the Waste Management location for Louisville that focuses on keeping materials out of the landfill.

Drive up to a simple entrance with a booth and an area where trucks and cars separate; there’s often a scale so loads are weighed and priced by weight. Recycling containers sit to the right past the entrance, with large bays and open tipping areas for bigger items further inside. Expect a mix of passenger cars, pickup trucks, and the occasional small roll-off truck threading through the lanes. The site looks industrial - concrete pads, big roll-up doors, and piles or bins for paper, cardboard, plastics, metals, glass, and common bulky items or electronics.

Before You Go

  • Bring items already sorted if possible; loose mixed loads take longer to unload and can cause a backup.
  • Pull into the drop-off lane slowly and follow the flow of traffic - weekends and spring cleanup bring noticeably longer lines.
  • Have smaller, manageable loads in the bed of a pickup or in bins so tipping is quick; wear gloves and closed-toe shoes for handling heavier material.
