HCUA is requesting our residents that have any water in their carts to please drain it out as much as possible. This will help solve issues with carts not being dumped. We have several incidents of where the truck is unable to dump the carts due to the excess weight from water inside the carts.

Thank you,

πŸ—‘οΈ Debris Collection Reminder

Debris and garbage collection will continue as normal following the recent storm.

Before placing debris at the curb, please remember:
βœ” Up to 8 cubic yards will be collected each week. Larger piles may take several weeks to remove.
βœ” Keep debris away from mailboxes, fire hydrants, gas meters and utility lines.
βœ” Do not place debris under power lines or low-hanging trees.
βœ” Limbs and debris must be 8 feet long or less.
βœ” Place all food waste in your garbage cart, not in debris piles.

❌ No contractor-generated waste

Need to dispose of appliances with refrigerants? The Harrison County Household Hazardous Waste Facility is open the second Saturday of each month from 8 a.m. to noon. Weekday appointments are also available. Call (228) 896-0206 for details.

🚨 Service Update 🚨

Due to flooding and hazardous road conditions, Waste Management and Pelican Waste & Debris, LLC have been in contact with Harrison County Utility Authority and have decided to pull route trucks from the roads to allow first responders and public works crews to safely perform their duties.

Any areas that were not serviced today due to flooding or unsafe road conditions will be serviced between tomorrow afternoon and Saturday. This will hopefully allow time for floodwaters to recede and roads to become safe for travel.

We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time. Additional updates will be posted to our page as they become available.

Why did the cardboard box feel confident?
Because it was flattened and ready to roll 😎

Dad jokes aside; clean and flattened cardboard helps make recycling more efficient for everyone.
