Area residents looking to spruce things up with some spring cleaning have several opportunities to receive help from their communities.
Hardin County will be accepting waste tires from all Kentucky residents Thursday and Friday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon at the old Springfield Road landfill, located at 3870 Rucker Road in Elizabethtown.
“This one only comes around every three years, so it’s very, very important for you guys to get all those tires together and get them and bring them out to us because it’s free as long as you’re living in the state of Kentucky,” said Hardin County Director of Public Works Stephanie Givens. “This is not a county-wide event. This is a statewide event.”
Find the flyer on the Hardin County Government Facebook page for more information.
Grayson County residents will be able to take waste tires to the Leitchfield transfer station on April 3, 4, and 5, and the Meade County Recycle Center will accept tires at the Meade County Fairgrounds on April 10, 11, and 12.
Elizabethtown Director of Public Works Don Hill is reminding residents to take advantage of the upcoming E-Scrap Recycling event sponsored by AGC Automotive, Tri-State E-Scrap, and Hardin County Government.
“That will occur on May 10, 2025, from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., and you would take your e-scrap to AGC Automotive America’s plant,” Hill said.
The City of Elizabethtown will begin their clean-up event March 31, ending April 30. The last week of the month will include appliance collection. Contact the city’s public works office to schedule a pick-up.
