Welcome to Bi-County

Serving Montgomery County, Stewart County, and Fort Campbell

Bi-County Solid Waste proudly serves Montgomery County, Stewart County, and Fort Campbell. Montgomery County and Stewart County formed a Solid Waste Authority in 1974. This foresight has led to one of the best-run facilities in the United States. 

In 1974, Montgomery and Stewart Counties formed a Solid Waste Authority — a smart move that led to one of the best-run landfill systems in the United States.

Today, Bi-County operates as a self-sufficient organization, receiving no tax dollars for landfill operations. Known nationwide, Bi-County continues to lead in responsible, innovative waste management.

Located off Dover Road, the Bi-County Landfill is where the majority of trash from Montgomery and Stewart Counties is taken. The site includes a Class I landfill for household waste and two Class III landfills for construction and demolition. Bi-County is the first government-run landfill in Tennessee to meet Subtitle D environmental regulations for solid waste.

Running a landfill is complex. It requires meeting strict state and federal standards to protect our air, land, and water. While meeting those standards, Bi-County also works to increase recycling and reduce waste to extend landfill life and keep our community cleaner.

Bi-County is governed by a seven-member board, led by Chairman John Gannon. Mark Neblett has served as Executive Director since October 2, 2019.

It’s our privilege to serve Montgomery and Stewart Counties by providing a clean, safe, and environmentally responsible way to manage waste — today and in the future.

Here is a video overview of Bi-County Operations: 

New Woodlawn Convenience Center location - 3210 Dover Road

Bi-County faces many current and future expenses to keep daily operations running, including equipment costs, landfill capping, and meeting State and Federal regulations. Rather than raising the User Fee for everyone, Bi-County chose to focus on those who dispose of amounts far greater than normal household waste.

Waste Tire Disposal

Due to Tire Grant Requirements, Bi-County Solid Waste now requires PRIVATE Individuals to provide the following information when disposing of Waste Tires.

Name, Address, and Number of Tires

This information will be kept on file for the State of Tennessee to ensure that residents from other Counties are not using Montgomery County facilities for tire disposal.
