Plans are underway to establish solid waste convenience centers at multiple sites throughout Lawrence County. This initiative aims to provide residents in various areas of the county with a more accessible option for disposing of their waste and recyclables, eliminating the need for them to travel to the transfer facility located in Lawrenceburg. Currently, efforts are being made to identify potential locations for these centers, with particular emphasis on the northern and western parts of the county.
Each proposed center will require a minimum of 2.0 acres of land and must be situated in areas that are easy for residents to access. It is particularly important that the center located in the western region is either in close proximity to or has straightforward access to Highway 64. The facilities will be maintained to high standards of cleanliness and will provide regular daily garbage collection services to ensure a tidy environment for all users.
