177 residents participate in free disposal day

Posted

Montgomery County residents had another chance for free landfill disposal over the weekend.

A total of 177 residents brought in 67.98 tons of waste to the Montgomery County Landfill on Saturday, Sept. 12, in the third of four annual free disposal days hosted by Rumpke Waste and Recycling.

Montgomery County residents have been able to dispose of 255.33 tons for free so far in 2026.

“Rumpke is happy to offer this free disposal day as part of our decades-long partnership with Montgomery County,” said Kevin Hall, Rumpke communications coordinator. “This is a great way for residents to dispose of items that can’t be part of the regular curbside service offered in Montgomery County.”

Residents disposed of a total of 459.08 tons of waste at the four free days hosted by Rumpke in 2025.

Montgomery County Solid Waste Coordinator Donny Pennington assisted Rumpke landfill employees at the event. The free disposal days are collaborations between Rumpke and Montgomery County officials, including the judge-executive, fiscal court and solid waste department. 

The remaining free disposal day is scheduled for Oct. 10.
