On Monday, April 6, 2026, the Iowa City Landfill and Recycling Center will be closed for scale maintenance.
Many services offered at the landfill are available in other locations throughout Johnson County.
- Most communities in Johnson County have curbside trash and recycling collection for residents. Contact your community for more information about these services.
- Many communities have programs for items such as electronics, appliances, and bulky items that are banned and/or do not fit in the carts provided. Please contact your community for more information about these services.
- Please visit icgov.org/landfill for other location options for many materials.
- Dumpster services are available from multiple waste and recycling haulers in the community.
