Other notes

Fall 2026 county guide supplies these posted rates and keeps a 091225 production code. Treat them as currently published values, not proof of a new 2026 price change. Call for larger tires or unusual loads.
Accepts dry paper/cardboard, rinsed food/beverage glass bottles, aluminum/steel cans, capped uncracked vehicle batteries, rechargeable batteries, electronics and listed refrigerant-bearing appliances. Keep special items separate and use designated bins. No alkaline batteries, window/plate glass or wet/dirty paper.
Electronics include computers/monitors, TVs, stereos, DVD players, phones, VCRs, printers and scanners. Screened devices have a $15 fee. Do not assume an integrated-screen laptop is exempt without asking.
Ordinary #1/#2 plastic bottles/jugs and #5 containers/cups are listed at this facility. This differs from Jennings and Franklin centers, whose guides list #1/#2 only.
Do not leave any materials after hours. Listed recyclable streams are not permission to dump general household garbage, construction waste or hazardous materials into recycling bins.
Landmark: approximately two miles south of Highway 356 on Double or Nothing Road. Postal descriptions conflict: district directory says Scottsburg IN 47170; Fall 2026 county brochure says Underwood IN 47177. The road/number match. Use the numbered entrance and call rather than relying on a postal-city label.
Clean/dry grocery bags, shrink wrap, dry-cleaner bags and drink-carton wraps have a separate accepted stream. Scrap metal must have gas tanks, fuel and batteries removed; no wire fencing.
Oil, filters and antifreeze have a five-gallon limit. HHW chemicals go to Jefferson County, not this center. A Scott County 2027 HHW event is only planned, not a published appointment date.
The reuse center accepts usable goods with no upholstered items; goods are for local county reuse, not resale. Reuse shopping hours are shorter than the 4:15 p.m. recycling close.
Do not treat the Scott County IN page as the Minnesota Scott County facility. These are different states and operators.
