HOURS, FEES & LOCATION

Daviess County Landfill Hours and Address

Planning to haul your own load instead of renting a dumpster? Here’s exactly where both Daviess County disposal facilities are, when they’re open, and roughly what they charge. If you’d rather skip the trip entirely, we handle all of this for you — it’s already built into your dumpster rental price.

FacilityAddressHoursAccepts
West Daviess County C&D LandfillKY-815, Owensboro, KYMon–Fri 7 AM–3:30 PM, Sat 7 AM–11:30 AMConstruction & demolition debris only
Grimes Avenue Transfer StationGrimes Ave, Owensboro, KYMon–Fri 7 AM–3:30 PM, Sat 7 AM–11:30 AMHousehold waste & general cleanout material

Both facilities charge by weight, and fees can add up fast on a self-haul trip — especially for a full truckload of shingles or a whole-home cleanout. Renting a dumpster bundles the tipping fee into one flat price, so there’s no per-ton surprise waiting at the scale house.

MATERIAL GUIDE

What Actually Counts as C&D Debris vs. Household Waste

The line between the two Daviess County facilities trips people up constantly. Here’s the plain-English version.

🏗️
Goes to West Daviess C&D
Concrete, brick, block, drywall, roofing shingles, framing lumber, siding, windows, doors, and clean demolition debris from renovation or construction work.
🏠
Goes to Grimes Avenue
Furniture, appliances (freon removed), boxes, clothing, general household junk, and the bulk of what comes out of a garage cleanout or estate cleanout.
✅
Mixed Loads Are Fine
Most renovation projects generate both types. You don’t have to sort it in the container — we handle the split when we tip, so you can load everything together.
HOW IT WORKS

You Never Have to Visit the Landfill Yourself

We Weigh and Sort at Tipping

When we dump your load, our driver separates C&D material from household waste and routes each to the correct Daviess County facility. You don’t need to know the rules — that’s our job.

Tipping Fees Are Already in Your Price

The $275–$530 price on this page includes disposal at both facilities. No per-ton surcharge, no separate landfill bill mailed to you later.

We Flag Prohibited Items Before Delivery

Tell us what you’re throwing out when you call, and we’ll tell you upfront if anything needs separate handling — before the container ever shows up.

Same Facilities, Every Time

We use West Daviess County C&D Landfill and Grimes Avenue Transfer Station exclusively — both licensed Daviess County facilities, never an out-of-county dump or illegal disposal site.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Questions about disposal in Daviess County.

Do I have to deal with the landfill directly?
No — never. We handle all tipping. You load the container and call when done. The disposal side is entirely our responsibility.
What happens if I put prohibited material in the dumpster?
We inspect loads at tipping. Prohibited items are returned and you’re responsible for alternate disposal. It’s easier to tell us upfront.
Can I put yard waste and construction debris together?
Yes — mixed loads go to the appropriate facility. Some mixed loads may need separating at our end, but we handle it.
Is there a weight limit for the landfill?
The landfill has its own weight rules, but we size your container to stay within legal haul weight. You don’t need to track this.
What are the Daviess County landfill hours?
Both West Daviess County C&D Landfill and Grimes Avenue Transfer Station are open Monday through Friday, 7 AM to 3:30 PM, and Saturday 7 AM to 11:30 AM. Closed Sundays. If you rent from us, none of this matters — we handle the trip on our schedule, not yours.
Where is the Daviess County landfill located?
West Daviess County C&D Landfill sits on KY-815, and Grimes Avenue Transfer Station is in Owensboro proper. Both are Daviess County-licensed facilities. Call us and we’ll route your debris to the correct one automatically.
How much does it cost to dump at the Daviess County landfill?
Both facilities charge by weight, and rates vary by material type. A truckload of mixed debris can run more than most people expect once you’re at the scale. Our flat dumpster pricing ($275–$530) already includes disposal, so there’s no separate landfill bill to budget for.
Can I take my own trash to the Daviess County landfill for free?
No facility in Daviess County accepts waste for free — both charge tipping fees by weight, and some materials require proof of residency. A dumpster rental avoids the trip, the fee calculation, and the drive entirely.

We handle disposal. You just load.

Tell us what you’re throwing out. We make sure it goes to the right facility — C&D landfill or transfer station — with full compliance.
