City collection A couch, sofa, dresser or table that will not fit either can is heavy trash, and the city collects that material at the curb every week. No charge. A residential dwelling served by the city Sanitation and Solid Waste Division, billed monthly with the city services account, with no separate heavy trash charge published.
City collection A mattress or box spring is a bulky item that fits neither can, so Hattiesburg collects it as heavy trash at the curb on the weekly route. No charge. A residential dwelling served by the city Sanitation and Solid Waste Division, which bills collection monthly with the city services account and publishes no separate charge for heavy trash.
City collection Washers, dryers, refrigerators and freezers are named on the city drop-off accepted list for the Right Way to Throw Away Day, while the curbside rule for a cooling appliance is not published. Heavy trash at the curb covers bulky items, but the city publishes no curbside rule for an appliance that holds refrigerant, so confirm a refrigerator or freezer with Sanitation and Solid Waste at 601-545-4545 before setting it out, or plan on the Right Way to Throw Away Day, which names washers and dryers, refrigerators and freezers.
City collection Bagged household garbage is collected inside the green can, extra bags on the ground are left behind, and the brown can takes yard debris rather than household junk. No charge. A residential dwelling served by the city, which issues one green can for household garbage and one brown can for yard debris and bills collection monthly with the city services account instead of per pickup. An extra can is available on request from Sanitation and Solid Waste at 601-545-4545 for the published monthly amount.
The highest first-item price applies once. Every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Applicable sales tax is shown before payment.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Hattiesburg collects its own garbage through the Sanitation and Solid Waste Division, and every residential dwelling is issued two 95-gallon cans, a green can for household garbage picked up on Monday or Tuesday and a brown can for yard debris picked up on Wednesday or Thursday. Cans go out by 6 a.m. with the arrows toward the street and more than three feet of clearance, and garbage has to be bagged inside the can. Anything that fits neither can is heavy trash: large limbs, shrubs and bulky household pieces such as a couch, a mattress or a dresser are collected at the curb every week, and the city publishes no separate charge for that material. Hazardous waste, tires and glass are refused in the cans and at the curb, the blue recycling cart refuses big items such as furniture and metal, and construction and demolition debris has no municipal route at all. Appliances, electronics and tires go to the city Right Way to Throw Away Day drop-off, which the city runs once a year with government and community partners.
A mattress or box spring is a bulky item that fits neither can, so Hattiesburg collects it as heavy trash at the curb on the weekly route.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. A residential dwelling served by the city Sanitation and Solid Waste Division, which bills collection monthly with the city services account and publishes no separate charge for heavy trash.
When & how
Heavy trash is collected weekly. The city publishes the garbage days and the yard debris days but not the heavy trash day, so confirm the day for the address with Sanitation and Solid Waste at 601-545-4545.
Get it ready
Set the mattress at the curb rather than in the street, keep it more than three feet from parked cars, mailboxes, fences and fire hydrants, and have it out before 6 a.m. on the collection day. Nothing hazardous goes in the same load, because hazardous waste, tires and glass are refused in any can and on the heavy trash route.

When & how
Weekly heavy trash collection, with the day confirmed through Sanitation and Solid Waste at 601-545-4545, because the city publishes the garbage days and the yard debris days but not the heavy trash day.
Get it ready
Set the piece at the curb and not in the street, and keep it clear of parked cars, mailboxes, fences and fire hydrants. Keep furniture out of the blue recycling cart, which refuses big items such as wood, plastic, furniture and metal and is not collected when they are inside.
Washers, dryers, refrigerators and freezers are named on the city drop-off accepted list for the Right Way to Throw Away Day, while the curbside rule for a cooling appliance is not published.
City cost & eligibility
Heavy trash at the curb covers bulky items, but the city publishes no curbside rule for an appliance that holds refrigerant, so confirm a refrigerator or freezer with Sanitation and Solid Waste at 601-545-4545 before setting it out, or plan on the Right Way to Throw Away Day, which names washers and dryers, refrigerators and freezers.
When & how
The published drop-off date is Saturday, May 2, 2026 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. at both locations, and the city has not published the next date, so confirm it through the Action Line at 601-545-4500 before loading.
Get it ready
Empty and defrost the unit, secure or remove doors and shelves so it can be handled safely, and keep it out of both city cans. Steel and construction material are refused in a can, so an appliance never goes in one.
Televisions, monitors, computers and laptops are accepted at the city Right Way to Throw Away Day and refused in the cans and the recycling cart, and no curbside screen route is published.
City cost & eligibility
Screens are accepted at the city drop-off day and refused in a can, but the city does not publish curbside pickup for a television or a computer, so confirm with Sanitation and Solid Waste at 601-545-4545 before setting one out.
When & how
Published for Saturday, May 2, 2026 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Bobby L. Chain Municipal Airport on Academy Drive and at the Lamar County Multi-Purpose Center in Purvis, with the next date confirmed through the Action Line at 601-545-4500.
Get it ready
Wipe the drive or remove it when the device holds personal data, keep the screen out of both cans and out of the blue recycling cart, and bring the power cord with the device to the drop-off day.
A treadmill, exercise bike or weight bench is not named on any city list, and bulky household items are collected as heavy trash at the curb.
City cost & eligibility
Exercise equipment is a bulky item, and the city does not name it on the heavy trash page or on the drop-off accepted list, so confirm the piece and any special pickup with Sanitation and Solid Waste at 601-545-4545 before setting it out.
When & how
Weekly heavy trash collection when the city accepts the piece, and the special pickup route is the Action Line at 601-545-4500 or Sanitation and Solid Waste at 601-545-4545.
Get it ready
Take the machine down as far as it will come apart, tie the cord and any loose parts to the frame, and set it at the curb rather than in the street and more than three feet from parked cars, mailboxes, fences and fire hydrants.
Tires are not acceptable in any can and not part of the weekly curbside route, and the city takes them at the Right Way to Throw Away Day drop-off.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no curbside tire charge because tires are refused at the curb and in the cans, and the drop-off day publishes no fee either, so call the Action Line at 601-545-4500 to confirm the next date and whether anything is charged before loading.
When & how
Published for Saturday, May 2, 2026 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the airport location and the Lamar County location, subject to the next published date.
Get it ready
Keep tires out of all three carts and off the curb, and ask about the count a household may bring when you call, because no city page publishes a per visit tire limit.
Construction and demolition debris is refused in the cans, is not part of the heavy trash route and has no published city drop-off.
City cost & eligibility
Hattiesburg lists construction and demolition debris, concrete blocks, dirt or rocks and steel as items that must not go in a can, and the city publishes no construction drop-off or heavy trash acceptance for a project load, so the material has to go through a private hauler or a licensed facility.
When & how
No municipal collection date exists for this material, so arrange a container or a private haul before the work starts rather than leaving a pile at the curb.
Get it ready
Keep debris out of the green and brown cans and out of the recycling cart, keep any on site pile from moving into the street, and confirm that the facility taking the load accepts the material and its charge before hauling it yourself.
Any large household piece that fits neither the green nor the brown can is heavy trash, and the city collects that material at the curb every week.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. A residential dwelling served by the city Sanitation and Solid Waste Division, billed monthly with the city services account, with no separate heavy trash charge published. Hazardous waste, tires and glass are not accepted in any can or on the heavy trash route.
When & how
Weekly heavy trash collection at the curb, with the day confirmed through Sanitation and Solid Waste at 601-545-4545, and a special pickup ordered through the Action Line at 601-545-4500 for material the weekly route does not take.
Get it ready
Set the load at the curb, never in the street, before 6 a.m. on the collection day and more than three feet from parked cars, mailboxes, fences and fire hydrants. Keep hazardous waste such as paint, light bulbs, batteries and chemicals out of the load, along with tires, glass, construction and demolition debris, concrete blocks, dirt, rocks, steel, motor oil, solvents, hot ashes and flammable liquids.
Bagged household garbage is collected inside the green can, extra bags on the ground are left behind, and the brown can takes yard debris rather than household junk.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. A residential dwelling served by the city, which issues one green can for household garbage and one brown can for yard debris and bills collection monthly with the city services account instead of per pickup. An extra can is available on request from Sanitation and Solid Waste at 601-545-4545 for the published monthly amount.
When & how
The green can is collected weekly on Monday or Tuesday and the brown can on Wednesday or Thursday depending on the route for the address, confirmed at 601-545-4545. A city holiday cancels that day and the crews run an abbreviated week.
Get it ready
Bag the garbage and put the bags inside the can without overfilling it, set the can out before 6 a.m. with the wheels away from the street and the arrows toward the street, and keep it more than three feet from parked cars, mailboxes, fences and fire hydrants. Bags left on the ground beside the can are not collected.
Bulky pieces that fit neither can are heavy trash and go at the curb, not in the street. Keep them more than three feet from parked cars, mailboxes, fences and fire hydrants, and have them out before 6 a.m. on the collection day.
Arrows toward the street and three feet of clearance
The city runs mechanical arm trucks, so a can goes out before 6 a.m. with the wheels away from the street and the arrows toward the street, more than three feet from parked cars, mailboxes, fences and fire hydrants, with the lid closed and nothing overfilled.
City Hall closes on the published holidays, no garbage, trash or recycling runs that day, and crews work an abbreviated week afterward. The city asks residents to place the can at the curb before 6 a.m. on the day so nothing is skipped.
Hazardous waste such as paint, light bulbs, batteries and chemicals, along with tires and glass, is refused in the cans and on the heavy trash route. Construction and demolition debris, concrete blocks, dirt, rocks and steel are refused in the cans as well.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.

City of Hattiesburg Sanitation and Solid Waste Division
Special pickup through the city Action Line
A household with material the weekly heavy trash route will not take, or with a load that needs an arranged pickup rather than a curbside set out.
Cost & conditions
The city publishes no price for a special pickup. Call the Action Line at 601-545-4500 or Sanitation and Solid Waste at 601-545-4545 with the material and the address, because the city opens the request as a work order rather than publishing a rate.
