Yard waste, hazardous materials, paint, tires and commercial trash will not be allowed for drop-off on the 17th.

Bulk waste and junk can also be disposed of for free throughout the year at the Waste Reduction Center at 636 Meriwether Ave. but, there is a limit of three items per drop-off.

Any residents wishing to get rid of paints, fertilizers, batteries, and household chemicals can do so at the Louisville Metro Household Materials Collection Center ( or HAZ BIN ) at 7501 Grade Ln.

There is no charge.

  2. I understand what you are saying, but you must realize that this is the only option some people have other than throwing the stuff in the forest or into the river. Illegal dumping hurts us all and this is a way to help prevent it.
