MacLand Landfill

MacLand Landfill, 11300 Highway 63 N, Moss Point, 39562, Mississippi

MacLand Landfill sits off Highway 63 north of Moss Point and is where trash and construction debris get buried rather than recycled. People from the neighborhood and local haulers make runs out here; landfills this size commonly accept both residential and commercial loads. The place has an industrial feel with steady truck traffic and heavy equipment working the cells.

Expect a working operation: dirt and gravel roads, compacted piles and machinery moving around. Most landfills have an entrance scale and a booth to check vehicles, and tipping fees are usually charged by weight or per load, so plan on a weigh-in. Pull up to the scale area and follow posted directions; larger trucks are often routed separately from cars and small trailers. Weekends and spring cleanups tend to create backups, so allow extra time.

Before You Go

  • Cover loose loads with a tarp - wind can scatter trash on the drive in and out and tarping avoids headaches.
  • Separate obvious recyclables and scrap metal from general trash to speed unloading if those items need to go elsewhere.
  • Use a vehicle that handles dirt and ruts; the yard and parking areas are often unpaved and can get muddy after rain.
