Tires, TVs, refrigerators and hazardous waste

Tires go to the North Barn (18382 Highway 43, Kiln) or the South Barn (6284 Lower Bay Road, Bay St. Louis), up to 25 a year per homeowner. Refrigerators need the Freon removed and tagged by a certified technician; then Coastal Environmental Services, the county's garbage company, picks them up at the curb on bulky waste days, along with old furniture.

TVs, computers, paint, motor oil, batteries and chemicals go to the county's Household Hazardous Waste Day, held once a year at the Hancock County Arena, 4184 Kiln-Delisle Road; the 2026 event was Saturday, April 25, and the county announces each year's date ahead of time. Most auto parts stores also take batteries and clean motor oil, and Magnolia Gas (12351 Vidalia Road, Pass Christian) recycles 5- and 7.5-gallon propane tanks.

Mississippi law keeps two things out of landfills. Car batteries: lead-acid batteries are banned from landfill disposal, and a store that sells you a new battery has to take back your old one. Whole tires: landfills and rubbish sites can't accept them under MDEQ's rules, so tires go to county tire collection sites or back to the tire store. State law doesn't ban appliances, TVs or yard waste from disposal; each county sets its own rules for those.
