Lycoming County Landfill
Lycoming County Landfill, 447 Alexander Drive Route 15, Montgomery, 17752, Pennsylvania
Lycoming County Landfill on Alexander Drive (Route 15) is the county landfill outside Montgomery where trash is taken to be buried. Residents, local haulers and landscaping crews use it; county-run landfills often accept commercial loads as well.
There’s the usual landfill setup - an entrance booth and a scale are part of the process, and tipping fees are typically charged by weight so expect to be weighed. Pull up to the booth/scale, then follow the gravel lanes toward the active drop area; heavy equipment and mounded cells are easy to spot. The site looks industrial with dirt roads and uneven surfaces, so drive slowly and be prepared for short delays while trucks maneuver.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Secure and tarp loads tightly; loose debris blows off during the short drive through the site and becomes a hassle to clean up.
- Plan for lines on weekends and during spring or fall cleanups - those are the busiest times and waits can stretch out.
- Keep vehicle info and any hauling paperwork within reach so the weigh-in/booth process moves faster, especially for commercial deliveries.
