Get Directions

City of Louisville Solid Waste Landfill is the local municipal dump people from town and nearby businesses use when regular pickup won’t do. Big enough to see heavy equipment working and long berms of compacted material, it handles both household drop-offs and larger loads from contractors. This is where trash gets buried, so expect a working-site feel rather than anything tidy.

Drive up a gravel lane to a small scale/booth area where vehicles stop to be weighed; landfills like this charge tipping fees based on weight or load, so the scale is part of the process. After weighing, traffic is directed to a tipping area or cell - there are no paved parking lots, just places to pull alongside a drop-off. The site is dusty when dry and muddy after rain, with loaders and dozers moving material and piles of cover dirt visible around the edges. Pull up, keep the load secured until told where to dump, and be ready to drive back over the scale on the way out.

Before You Go

  • Tie down and tarp loose material; gravel roads and wind will send light stuff flying during the drive in.
  • Have someone to help with heavy or awkward items and wear sturdy boots and gloves - the ground is uneven and machinery is moving.
  • Expect to be weighed in and out, so make the load easy to unload when directed and avoid weekend afternoons or spring-cleanup rushes if possible.
