DeSoto County contracts solid waste collection through Waste Pro and Republic Services by municipality. Bins screened from street between pickups. Place at curb evening before pickup, retrieve within 24 hours.
DeSoto County solid waste collection is handled by contracted haulers varying by municipality: Southaven (Waste Pro), Olive Branch (Republic Services), Horn Lake (Waste Pro), Hernando (city-contracted), and the unincorporated county (Waste Pro). County Solid Waste Ordinance and individual municipal codes require rollout carts to be stored out of public view between collections — typically behind a fence, in a garage, or along the side of the dwelling screened from the public right-of-way. Bins may be placed at the curb no earlier than 6 PM the evening before collection and must be retrieved within 24 hours of pickup. Lids must remain closed; overflow must be bagged inside the cart or set out separately per hauler rules. Bulk items, yard waste, and recycling follow hauler-specific schedules. Illegal dumping at vacant lots is a separate §97-15-29 state violation. HOAs commonly impose stricter storage rules.
First offense: warning. Subsequent: $25 to $100 citation per occurrence. Persistent violations: code enforcement action with escalating fines. Illegal dumping: state misdemeanor §97-15-29.
