Alcorn County Transfer Station

Alcorn County Transfer Station in Corinth is the local spot where household trash gets compacted and sent off to a larger landfill. Residents from nearby rural areas and town neighborhoods use it when hauling loads that are too big for curbside pickup.

Drive up Harper Road and look for a small entrance booth and a set of lanes for vehicles; there’s usually a scale near the entry so trucks and pickups get weighed. Loads are dumped into a pit or hopper and compacted before being hauled out on larger trucks, so it looks more like a working lot than a public park. Expect to pull up, stop at the booth for directions, then follow signs or staff instructions to the unloading area; traffic can back up on weekends or during seasonal cleanups. The site is mostly gravel and pavement with heavy equipment around, so watch for moving trucks and keep children and pets back from the active areas.
