Floyd County, KY (WMDJ) - Rumpke Waste & Recycling will begin trash collection in Floyd County on October 6, 2025. The family-owned company has operated since 1932 and serves more than 400 communities across several states.

County officials say residential billing will remain the same, and residents will continue to receive one free monthly dumping opportunity at the transfer station. Trash carts are available to rent for $3.50 per month, but they are not required. Businesses still in need of a dumpster should contact Rhonda Bame at 1-800-828-8171, extension 3085.

Residents are asked to place trash at the curb the night before pickup. Bags, cans, or bundles must not exceed 50 pounds, and hazardous materials such as batteries, liquids, and tires will not be collected. Service will run one day late if a pickup falls on or after a major holiday.

County crews are currently working to collect trash that was missed this week. Anyone not picked up by the end of next week should call the Solid Waste Billing Department at 606-886-7890, the County Judge’s office at 606-886-9193, or Rhonda Bame at the number provided above.

More information is available on the flyer mailed to residents or online at www.rumpke.com.
