Three Rivers Regional Landfill

Three Rivers Regional Landfill, 1904 Pontotoc Pkwy, West, Pontotoc, 38863, Mississippi

Three Rivers Regional Landfill is the big county landfill off Pontotoc Parkway West that locals and haulers use when garbage needs to be buried. It handles everything from pickup-truck loads to large commercial rigs and operates with the usual tipping-fee setup tied to the site scale. Expect weight-based charges and a small minimum for residential drops at places like this.

Drive up to an entrance booth and then over a scale-vehicles are weighed so plan on a stop coming and going. The site is expansive: dirt roads, piles of compacted trash, and front-end loaders moving material around. After weighing, vehicles are routed to a tipping area to unload and then typically cross the scale again. Watch for loose gravel, wide turning radiuses, and other heavy equipment while maneuvering a trailer or truck.

Before You Go

  • Secure and tarp loose loads; anything that blows out will track down Pontotoc Parkway and make the trip longer and messier.
  • If towing a trailer, line up straight before backing to the tip-off point and give yourself plenty of room for turns-these pits need space.
  • Avoid weekend afternoons and spring-cleanup rushes when possible; midweek mornings usually move faster and have fewer long lines.
