Winter Weather Impacts Rumpke Service

GEORGETOWN (Jan. 25, 2026) – Rumpke Waste & Recycling will suspend trash and recycling collection for Monday, Jan. 26, throughout central and eastern Kentucky.    

Rumpke plans on operating on a one-day delay the remainder of the week, as road conditions and weather allow. Customers are encouraged to visit Rumpke.com for service updates in their area.

“We don’t take the decision to suspend services lightly,” said Adam Rumpke, Region Vice President. “However, we must put the safety of our team members, our customers and the motoring public first. Our plan is to collect Monday customers on Tuesday, and Tuesday customers on Wednesday, and so on, with Friday customers collected on Saturday.”

Additionally, Rumpke’s facilities, including the Montgomery County Landfill, transfer stations in Scott, Garrard, Magoffin, Knott and Leslie counties, and the Rumpke recycling center in Lexington will be closed to the public on Monday, Jan. 26.
