Mifflin County Solid Waste Authority

Mifflin County Solid Waste Authority in Lewistown is the county facility locals use for general household trash, recycling and yard debris. Located on Landfill Road, it serves residential drop-offs and small haulers from the area. Expect a working site rather than a neat retail setup - this is where people bring a range of everyday cleanup loads.

There’s an entrance booth and a scale near the front, so vehicles typically line up, stop at the booth, then move over the scale before heading to drop-off areas. The site is mostly open lots with paved and gravel driving surfaces and visible piles or containers for different materials. Recycling bins or yard debris piles are usually separated from general trash, so drivers often have to pull up to different spots to unload. Weekends and spring cleanup times can get backed up, so plan for some waiting if it’s busy.
