Adams Brown Recycling

Adams Brown Recycling on Mt Orab Pike is the small-town recycling center locals use when cleaning out basements, garages or prepping for a move. People from Georgetown and nearby communities drop off common items here - think cardboard, aluminum cans, glass and scrap metal - and sometimes there are special collection events for things like electronics or tires.

The site feels like a working yard more than a polished retail lot: expect gravel, big roll-off bins and a simple booth or scale area where loads are processed - many centers handle weight-based drop-offs so plan for an extra stop in and out. Pull off Mt Orab Pike into the driveway and follow signs or traffic flow to the unloading area; recycling containers are usually grouped by material so it’s easy to move from one pile to the next. Bring items reasonably sorted and ready to lift or slide out of a truck - that speeds things up since there isn’t a lot of hand-holding on site.
