Republic Services is committed to being a good neighbor in the communities we serve. Middle Point Landfill is committed to operating with environmental practices and policies that are good for our customers, local businesses and residents. Our local team of operations managers, environmental managers, engineers and scientists ensures that the long-term management of the landfill materials is regenerative to the planet.
Middle Point is operated in a manner that protects public health and the environment. We work closely with the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation to ensure that each constructed landfill area is engineered to protect the environment and meets all federal, state and local regulations. There are many environmental protection systems at Middle Point.
We run approximately 95 collection routes through the Middle Tennessee area.
Transfer stations aggregate waste collected by multiple collection vehicles in a single place. By combining waste into transfer trucks, we have less vehicles on the road and reduce emissions.
Waste is carefully compacted and covered daily to limit wind-blown debris and odors, creating a stable engineered facility.
Recycling is important to this community and our company, and Middle Point Landfill works directly with recycling companies in the area.
