It is a great place to dump I want to trash or furniture or whatever if you're doing your spring or fall cleaning. Or if you're just getting rid of junk out of your house or basement or whatever. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because some of the workers are not very skilled at giving you directions as to where to park your vehicle to unload it. Other than that it's a great experience. There can be long lines depending on what time of day you go. Oh and FYI, no panel trucks and no trailers allowed. Vehicles that are allowed include pickup trucks, suvs, vans, minivans, and cars. Automobiles are $2, all the other vehicles are $5. Happy dumping read more

Even though understaffed they continued to function. This has to be said by someone- "this place is a dump" of course I mean literally it's where we dump trash. read more

All reviews before this one are pretty spot on. Prices in 2023 have not changed - $5 for trucks/SUVs and $2 for cars. Note: You can only dump 4 small tires. They are recycled so you have to walk across the lot to take them to a separate area. Also, you may have to take other materials to the same separate area if it is recyclable. Since there are service attendants on the lot, I do not recommend trying to dump what is not on the allowed list. You will find what is allowed and not allowed on a sign right after you pay the attendant. 10 things to know before you go: 1. Cheapest rates in Indy to dump household trash. 2. Open 8 am - 4 pm. 3. They are only open on Saturdays. 4. A variety of allowed items can be dumped. 5. You are allowed to dump 2 times per day. 6. They don't pay you for items that can be recycled for cash. If you have appliances, you could possibly get a rebate or credit to your utility bill from your local utility company. Why dump for free if you can get paid? 7. It can be a long wait to dump if it is crowded. 8. 2 vehicles are allowed per dumpster and there are 3 dumpsters = 6 vehicles at a time. If dumpsters get full, there will be fewer spaces until the full dumpster is replaced. 9. One location only on the south side of downtown Indy. The nearest cross streets are Harding and Belmont. 10. Cash only. Don't forget to bring cash. Overall it is the best value to get rid of large amounts of household trash, especially during spring cleanup time. read more

This is the most cost-effective way to dispose of any large items. You pay a low $5 flat fee per car (or truck) load. The only drawback is it's only open for a few hours on Saturdays and you have to wait in a line to throw out your stuff. When it's your turn a Citizens employee directs you where to park. Then you just chuck your trash over the low concrete wall into a dumpster parked below. Much cheaper than the private landfill down the street. Also, Citizens will take old refrigerators whereas the landfill will not. (Fridges don't go in the dumpsters. You unload them in a separate area.) read more

Looking for the dump? This is it! If you're moving, cleaning, have had a raging party that left you with a mess, and you just need to get rid of a bunch of trash, you can come here and dump it. It's $2 for a car or $5 for an SUV, truck, or van. Sorry, no Uhauls. The set up is simple and easy. You drive up, pay at the shack at the entrance, and then follow the drive where you can back up your vehicle and empty out over a wall down to dumpsters. You then drive on through the circle back where you came in to exit. It's well maintenanced and a lot cheaper than paying by weight at other places. read more

Citizens Transfer Station - Recycling Center Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Tracey's review did a fine job of explaining the Marion County Transfer Station. Not much I can add so some of this is repetitive. The Transfer Station is only open on Saturdays from 8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. Cost is affordable at $2 for a car or SUV safely loaded and $5 for a pick up truck. No 3/4 ton pickup trucks, trailers or U-haul allowed. Only regular or heavy trash items, furniture, yard debri in bags are accepted. No construction materials such as shingles and metal has to be separated for another dumpster. You pay (Cash Only) at the shack at the entrance and get in line. Usually 6-7 vehicles can unload at a time. Two employees direct traffic and help guide you as you back up to the dumpsters. You exit safely back by the shack. The Southside landfill is $20 (+4 fuel surcharge) for a pickup truck so the Citzens Transfer Station is a deal. Easy to find and easy in and out. read more

Every cashier has been so pleasant! But, kudos to Janice (sp)? She was the most helpful and informative we've met. They all deserve a raise, Indy!! read more

This dump is the cheapest way to haul all your unneeded items away but its only once a week on Saturday only from 8a.m. to 4 p.m. They don't take shingles or drywall and certain other items but the majority they will accept. read more
