NOT CURRENTLY FOR CURBSIDE SERVICES
A few waste materials are significantly more detrimental to our health and the environment. These items contain chemicals that need to be managed with much more concern than standard waste/recycling. Please take the time to familiarize yourself with these items so that we can more readily facilitate the proper disposal procedures.
We are seeking solutions to make it easier to get these items to the proper place, but are currently unable to provide a curbside service. Until we can workout a better solution, you can take the items to:
Environmental Service Center
1570 Univerity Blvd. (Terry Rd)
Jackson, MS 39204
Open Tuesday and Thursday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
(It is is an old fire station on the corner of Hwy 80 and University Blvd.)
