DeKalb County offers its resident 12 locations throughout the county to dispose garbage with a variety of hours. Convenience sites will accept garbage from DeKalb County residents or property owners with proof of ownership. The sites will take household garbage or small amounts of other items.

No brush or grass clippings are allowed in containers due to fire danger.

No trash may be left on ground or outside gate.

Appliances may be deposited at Alexandria, Snow Hill, McMinnville Highway and Felts Road Landfill.

No more than four tires are accepted at one time at most sites. More than four tires will be accepted at $1.50 each. State law requires that a record be kept of tires received. Commercial tire shops with tire tax numbers may bring tires to the trailer at Snow Hill, McMinnville Highway or Felts Road Landfill.

The DeKalb County Landfill will bring 30-yard containers to contractors or clean-up sites, when available, on a first come – first serve basis. The cost of this service is $100 for delivery of container, which includes pickup, plus $35 per ton of debris. An application agreement must be signed before delivery with location, person who is responsible for payment and other arrangements such as delivery. Containers may be kept up to two weeks only. We reserve the right to inspect site location and to determine safety of delivery before agreement. For more information or to obtain a container, contact Danny Green, DeKalb County Landfill, at 931-761-5588 or the DeKalb County Executive office at 615-597-5175.
