How disposal works in Mississippi
In Mississippi the place to take furniture, limbs and remodeling debris is usually the county's rubbish site (a construction-and-debris landfill), and many counties let residents use it free: four visits a month in DeSoto County, any time with a Jackson County car tag, and 10 cubic yards a month in Hancock County. Household garbage goes in your curbside cart, not to the rubbish pit.
State law keeps car batteries and whole tires out of landfills, so counties collect tires at their own drop-off sites and stores take back old batteries.
We're writing Mississippi up county by county: 4 counties are live, and our guide to what it costs to dump in Mississippi puts their rates side by side. The finder covers every active landfill, rubbish site, transfer station and county tire collection site on MDEQ's list; county sites are usually for that county's residents.
