Eldna, unfortunately, it doesn’t look like there are many recycling options near Laurel, MS. The closest location I see is in Sumrall. Use the green search box to locate recycling options. You can incrementally increase the search area up to 100 miles! Best of luck with your search.

I have used hardwood construction mats in Mississippi. Some can be sold and some can’t. The mats that cannot be sold I would like to offer to some type of recycling operation. I would appreciate any type of leads to dispose of the unsaleable mats.

Good Morning, I am trying to find recycle centers for plastic bottles, cans and paper near Grenada, MS. Oxford MS has three sites that recycle these items but they state that they are for residents only. Is there anywhere else? I thought maybe Waste Management would offer some sort of recycling options but I can’t find anything. I appreciate your help and assistance.

The Mississippi Department of Enviromental Quality web site is the best place to go for recyling information in Mississippi. This link is for their directory of Mississippi recyling companies. http://www.deq.state.ms.us/MDEQ.nsf/page/Recycling_RecyclingDirectories?OpenDocument

For a Recycleing place to state that they are for Residents Only? First, how would they know if you Drop it off? Pontotoc has a Recycling Trailer with different bins, one for office paper, one plastic bottles, one Steel Lids and cans. Then on Water & Hwy 15 they have an Aluminum Recycling place. I was told about this old Microwave I have that Cowby Mahoneys will take them to dispose of properly.. just have to put by thier trash bin and it will be disposed of the right way they told me.

Where do you dispose of the new energy-saving light bulbs that are suppose to last 4-5 years (this one only lasted about 6 months)? I live in Pontotoc, MS.
