Disposal Site

Martha Community Disposal Center

1530 Powell Grove Rd, Lebanon, TN 37090

(615) 449-6038

This is the county disposal site out on Powell Grove Road that folks from Lebanon and nearby areas use for dropping off household trash and bulky stuff. It sits on a fairly big, open lot and gets steady traffic on weekends. Neighbors bring pickup loads, trailers, and the occasional old couch or tree limbs.

Drive up to a small entrance booth where someone usually checks you in and tells you where to go; there’s often a scale you’ll cross coming in or leaving, so be ready to stop twice. The site itself has several concrete pads and roll-off containers, with recycling bins over to one side and larger sacrifice piles or compacting areas further in. Traffic can bottleneck on Saturday mornings and during yard-cleanup season, so there may be a line to get through the gate. Signage is basic-watch the arrows and follow the flow, pulling up to the appropriate drop point for your load.

Before You Go

  • Bring gloves and a tarp for loose or messy loads; the drop areas are rough and there’s gravel everywhere.
  • Backing up takes patience: scout the lane space before pulling a trailer in so the driver isn’t stuck maneuvering in tight spots.
  • Try midweek if possible-shorter lines and quicker unloading compared with weekend afternoons.
