Crawford County Sanitary Landfill

Crawford County Sanitary Landfill, 5128 Lincoln Highway East, Bucyrus, 44820, Ohio

Crawford County Sanitary Landfill on Lincoln Highway East is the Bucyrus spot where household trash and hauler loads get buried. Neighbors, local haulers and businesses in the county bring bulky items and regular pickups here. It’s the county’s landfill for final disposal rather than a drop-off recycling center.

Pull in off Lincoln Highway and there’s usually a scale and an entrance booth common to county landfills; vehicles are weighed so plan to stop twice. Tipping fees are typically calculated by weight, so the weigh-in/weigh-out process matters for timing. After weighing in, back up to the tipping area to dump and then cross the scale again on the way out. Weekends and spring cleanup season tend to be busier, so lines can build up at the entrance.

Before You Go

  • Cover and secure light items with a tarp - wind will scatter loose debris while unloading.
  • Sort loads before getting there so bulky, metal or recyclable pieces can be separated quickly at the dump spot and the whole visit moves faster.
  • Treat this like a weigh-station run: have the truck bed accessible, know the order you’ll unload, and factor in extra time if hauling a commercial load since fees are usually weight-based and handled differently than small residential loads.
