Recycling in Leland: A Local Guide
Leland, Mississippi (Washington County) has two listed waste facilities, both operated by Republic Services on Landfill Road — but neither functions as a public recycling drop-off center for residents. Understanding what each site is helps avoid an unnecessary trip.
Republic Services at 48 Landfill Road is the company's local hauling and maintenance yard, identified by the Mississippi DEQ as the "Greenville Hauling Facility." It is a commercial fleet operation, not a self-haul drop-off. Residents who want curbside trash collection, dumpster rental, or bulk-waste removal in the Leland area can call Republic Services at (662) 335-1014 to arrange service.
Republic Services Big River Landfill at 52 Landfill Road is an active permitted municipal solid waste landfill (operated by BFI Waste Systems of Mississippi, LLC). It accepts nonhazardous solid waste, construction and demolition debris, yard waste, contaminated soil, ash, and non-friable asbestos. Gate hours are Monday–Friday 6:00 AM–4:30 PM and Saturday 7:00–10:00 AM. It is a disposal landfill, not a recycling facility — call (662) 332-7927 before visiting to confirm self-haul access, tipping fees, and documentation requirements. Hazardous waste and household chemicals are not accepted.
For residents of Washington County who need recycling services, the City of Leland's cardboard drop-off program is listed in the MDEQ recycling directory as the nearest publicly listed option. Washington County also maintains household hazardous waste programs — contact the county solid waste department for current collection dates.
