From the county's landfill page, October 2026. Tires go in the waste tire container, which is for Daviess County residents, not businesses. Bag tags can't be bought ahead of time.
By law, the landfill won't take yard waste (grass clippings, shrubs and trees), free liquids such as paint, oil and pesticides, car and truck batteries, car and truck bodies, or dead animals. Refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners, working or not, need a signed certificate showing the Freon and compressor were removed. Burned waste must be completely out.
Recycling containers at the landfill take #1 and #2 plastics, aluminum cans, steel food cans, newspapers and corrugated cardboard; books and magazines go inside the scalehouse.
Indiana law keeps whole tires, car batteries and TVs, computers and most other electronics out of household trash headed for a landfill, and landfills can't take an appliance until its refrigerant has been removed. Stores that sell new tires must take your old ones, one for one, when you buy.
