Shelby County Kentucky Recycling
Recycling is easy and free of charge. It helps to conserve natural resources and reduce the amount of waste deposited in landfills.
Convenient
The Recycling and Solid Waste Disposal Facility is conveniently located in Shelbyville near I-64 and Taylorsville Road.
We are open 7 am – 3 pm Tuesday through Saturday except holidays.
Please see the Hours page for Holiday Closings.
Our Services
We accept both recyclable and non-recyclable materials. Recycling is free and there is a small fee for non-recyclables. It’s easy, economical, and available to everyone. Tire disposal is for Shelby County residents only and tires must be less than 42 inches tall.
Please note that, due to economic reasons, beginning 1 January 2025 we will only be able to accept types 1 and 2 plastics (such as beverage, food, and detergent containers marked as type 1 or 2). [more info].
