Dickson County Solid Waste

Dickson County Solid Waste is the county-run drop-off for household trash, yard debris, and common recyclables used by Dickson residents. Locals bring everything from bagged trash to branches and separated recyclables here. It’s the kind of place neighbors stop by when doing a cleanup or clearing out a truck bed.

There’s an entrance booth and a scale commonly found at county facilities, so plan for a short stop at the gate before getting to the bins. Pull up slowly into one of the lanes and follow signs or attendants directing traffic to trash, recycling, or yard waste areas. The site is mostly outdoors with large containers, roll-off dumpsters, and open piles for green waste, so expect to climb down or work from the tailgate. Weekends and spring cleanup times tend to be busier, with lines forming at the entrance.
