Landfill
Pine Belt Regional Landfill
Pine Belt Regional Landfill, 5274 Highway 29 S, Ovett, 39464, Mississippi
Pine Belt Regional Landfill sits off Highway 29 south of Ovett and is where local trucks and pickup loads end up when trash needs to be buried. It’s a large, open site that sees everything from small hauls to big roll-offs on weekdays and weekends.
A small entrance booth and a scale are visible from the road; pull up there first to let staff know what you’re bringing. The site is mostly gravel and dirt with heavy equipment moving around, so drive slowly and watch for haul trucks. Landfills this size generally charge tipping fees by weight or by load, and commercial haulers commonly use them, so arrangements differ from residential drop-offs. Smells and dust change with the wind and the active cells and machinery are easy to spot across the property.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Cover and secure loose loads-light debris will blow on windy days and around heavy equipment.
- If possible, avoid late mornings on weekends or peak spring cleanup times; lines and wait times can build up fast.
- Keep any business paperwork or manifests handy when hauling commercial loads, since documentation is often required.
