4. What recyclable materials does the City of Southaven collect, and where can I recycle them?

Please be aware that due to recent changes in recycling industry practices that affect our only local processing facility – we are required to request the following of our recycling customers:

• Please place only Type 1 & 2 plastics in a curbside recycling cart.
• Please place only Type 1 & 2 plastics in the recycle container at the Southaven Arena located at 7360 Highway 51 North.
• Placing other plastics besides Type 1 & 2 will result in the loads being considered contaminated, will result in higher costs as penalties and will ultimately be rejected for recycling processing; the type of plastic can be seen on the bottom of most plastic containers

5. How does the City of Southaven work to control mosquito problems?

The City of Southaven seeks to comply with Mississippi Department of Health directives and mandates regarding vector control (including mosquito issues). This includes weekly spraying of the entire City limits from April through October at the times specified by the Health Department. We address our public properties to minimize adult mosquito development. We also enforce municipal codes on private properties to help minimize adult mosquito development there.
