Smith County Cleanup

SMITH COUNTY – Smith County residents can take one free trip to the landfill during the annual Smith Countywide Cleanup, which runs from March 30 through May 1, 2026. The Smith County Sheriff’s Office Environmental Crimes Unit and Commissioners Court are once again offering the yearly program, which allows residents to take one truckload of bulky items (3 cubic yards of solid waste) to the Greenwood Farms Landfill for free.

During National County Government Month in April, one voucher per resident is available in-person only at the Smith County Courthouse Annex, the Smith County Fire Marshal’s Office/EOC or any of the Justice of the Peace/Constable Offices throughout the county. The City of Whitehouse is also a voucher pickup location again this year. The vouchers are available beginning March 25, and can be used beginning Monday, March 30, through Friday, May 1, 2026.

Cleaning up your property of unnecessary items that collect rainwater is also a good way to help keep mosquitos away. Greenwood Farms Landfill is located at 12920 Farm-to-Market Road 2767, Tyler. It is seven miles east of Loop 323, off Old Kilgore Highway.

Smith County Environmental Crimes Deputy Michael Johnson oversees the program and said the landfill requests that residents tarp and secure the loads they take so the items do not blow or fall out of the truck or trailer. The landfill charges to take mattresses. The Smith County Voucher includes only one free mattress set (includes mattress and box spring). Additional mattresses will cost $63 at the landfill.

Items not accepted: hazardous waste, pesticides, herbicides, solvents, gasoline, oils, acid, batteries, asbestos, wet paint, freon, whole tires, televisions, computers, refrigerators and freezers.

The Greenwood Farms Landfill is open from 6:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and 6:30 a.m. to noon Saturday. Its phone number is 800-678-7274.
