Local knowledge
Getting our bearings in Canton
Knowing a city properly is the difference between covering it and showing up with the right box.
- City crew since August 2025 — Canton took garbage collection in-house on 4 August 2025: Wards 1 to 4 on Monday, 5 to 7 on Thursday, City-issued 95-gallon carts only.
- Canton Sanitary Landfill — City-owned at 303 Soldier Colony Rd, a Subtitle D landfill and Class I rubbish site taking C&D, household garbage, vegetation, tires and white goods from eight counties. Published rates: $38 a ton plus a $5 environmental charge, $1 tax and $1 fuel surcharge. Hours were not found — the landfill is on 601-859-8626.
- Bulky items by appointment — free, booked through Public Works on 601-859-3245, and out to the right-of-way only after booking.
- Tree contractors haul their own — "If you hire a contractor to trim or cut your trees, the City requires the contractor to dispose of all related waste," and large piles left by contractors get tagged.
- Historic districts — a historic preservation commission reviews demolition of landmarks and buildings in a historic district (Code Ch. 25).

What comes out of Canton properties
Remodels and roofs in 15s and 20s, cleanouts in 20s and 30s, and a 10 for brick, concrete and dirt. Code § 14-26 puts heavy accumulations — "brick, broken concrete, lumber, ashes, dirt and plaster, sand or gravel", dead trees and other bulky, heavy material — on the owner, at the owner's expense and under the superintendent's direction. The City's knuckle-boom truck takes ordinary yard debris, with limbs cut to 4 ft and 100 lb (§ 14-25).

Choosing a container size in Canton

Permits, placement and who may haul in Canton
Where Canton waste goes — the rule that matters: City Code § 14-6 says all municipal solid waste generated within the city that is placed in the waste stream for disposal in Mississippi "shall be transported to, stored and managed at the city sanitary landfill located at 303 Soldier Colony Road." Each day of a violation is a separate offense, with fines up to $1,000 and/or 90 days. Call us before booking so we can confirm how your Canton load is handled.
Who may collect: § 14-15, written in 1959, says all residential and commercial garbage is picked up by the City's sanitary department "except as otherwise provided." It does not mention roll-offs or construction debris; § 14-26 separately puts brick, concrete, lumber and other heavy debris on the owner, and § 14-21 lets businesses use large mechanically loaded containers of a cubic yard or more. We found no hauler licence or franchise in Chapter 14. Call us and we will confirm with the City how your job is treated before booking.
In the street: § 29-3 makes it unlawful to obstruct any street, sidewalk, curb, gutter or public alley "in any manner or by any material whatsoever." No container permit was found — driveway or site only.
Demolition: Canton's code adopts the 1997 Standard Building Code with its demolition-fee appendix; the amounts are not in the online code. In a historic district the historic preservation commission reviews demolition first (§ 25-57).
Summarized from the city's published code and web pages as read in October 2026. Codes change — confirm with the department listed before you rely on it.
How it works
Booking a dumpster in Canton
Booking a container here takes one phone call and about five minutes.
- 1
Call and tell us the job
One short conversation. We ask what you are clearing, where the container needs to sit, and how much room the driveway or lot gives us. No long forms, no waiting on an email.
- 2
We size it and quote it flat
You get one number covering delivery, the 7-day rental, pickup, disposal and a stated tonnage allowance. If a smaller box does the job we will say so. If it is concrete, brick or dirt, we say up front that weight decides the size.
- 3
Delivered where you want it
The driver checks the spot and sets the container square on the driveway, lot or job site, with boards under the rails if you want them. Same-day in Jackson if you called before noon, depending on availability.
- 4
Load at your own pace
Keep it level with the top rail and keep the banned items out — tires, car batteries, oil, paint, chemicals, fridges with the refrigerant still in them, and anything hot. Need a swap mid-job or an early pickup? One call or text and we are on it.
- 5
We haul it and dispose of it right
The load goes out tarped to a permitted rubbish site or landfill, with metal, concrete and clean green waste recycled where the facility takes them. You get your driveway back the way you left it.

Local answers
Dumpster rental in Canton — common questions
Is Canton same-day or next-day?
Next morning as a rule — about 32 minutes from the yard — and often the same day. Call (601) 821-2292 and ask.
Where does debris from a Canton job go?
City Code § 14-6 says municipal solid waste from inside Canton must go to the City landfill on Soldier Colony Rd. Call us before booking so we can confirm how your load is handled.
Will the City take my brick and concrete?
Code § 14-26 puts brick, broken concrete, lumber, dirt and other heavy debris on the owner, at the owner's expense. That is container work.
Can a dumpster sit in the street in Canton?
No — § 29-3 bars obstructing any street, sidewalk, curb or gutter, and we found no permit route. Driveway or site only.
