DeKalb County offers its residents 13 locations throughout the county to dispose of garbage. Convenience sites will accept residential garbage from DeKalb County residents or property owners with proof of ownership. The sites will take bagged household garbage or small amounts of other items.
No trash may be left on ground within the site or outside the gate.
Appliances may be deposited at Alexandria, Snow Hill, McMinnville Highway, Blue Springs, Liberty, Midway, Village Market and Transfer Station scrap metal containers.
Tree trimmings and limbs will only be accepted at the Transfer Station for residential cleanup projects.
Furniture drop-off locations are the Transfer Station, Snow Hill, Alexandria and McMinnville Highway. Small amounts only, like dressers or mattresses, no full trailer loads, large amounts will need to go to the Transfer Station.
No more than four tires per individual every 6 months can be disposed of per state regulations. State law requires that a record be kept of tires received. Large quantities of tires can be received at the Felts Road Landfill for a fee of $1.50-$5 per tire, depending on the size. Commercial businesses with tire tax numbers may bring tires to the trailer at Snow Hill, McMinnville Highway or Felts Road Landfill.
The DeKalb County Transfer Station rents 30 cubic yard open top containers for cleanup and construction projects. The cost of this service is $200 for a one-time delivery of container, which includes one pickup and disposal at $80 per ton of debris. Containers may be kept for up to two weeks only. There is a $100 late fee per week after the initial two weeks. A rental agreement must be signed and paid for in advance before delivery. We reserve the right to inspect site location and to determine safety of delivery before agreement.
