McNairy County Transfer Station managed by Waste Connections

4702, #64, Selmer, TN 38375

McNairy County Transfer Station in Selmer (managed by Waste Connections) is where local household and small commercial loads get compacted and hauled off to a landfill elsewhere. People from around the county use it when hauling trash is easier than driving to a distant landfill. The site is a practical drop-off point for those who want to avoid a long trip out of town.

The site looks like a working industrial yard with big roll-off areas and compactors rather than a neat row of curbside bins. There’s usually an entrance booth and a scale to drive over, and trucks come and go loading compacted material into larger haulers. Drivers pull up to get directed where to unload, then move aside to the scale again in many cases since tons are commonly charged by weight. Expect noise from machinery and the occasional large truck; it’s not quiet or tidy like a recycling center.

Before You Go

  • Bring your load secure and easy to unload-tarps and tied-down items speed things up and keep debris off the road.
  • Avoid weekends or spring-cleanup spurs if possible; lines and wait times get noticeably longer then.
  • Have materials grouped (metal with metal, brush with brush) and ready to hand off so unloading goes faster and saves everyone time.
