Womack Sanitation Inc. is a family owned business that has served as DeSoto County’s solid waste removal company for over 40 years. Robert Womack, Sr. began Womack Sanitation in 1972 as the sole employee with just one truck. Robert Womack Jr., joined his father in 1986 and the two have worked and ran the business ever since. Currently, Womack Sanitation now has 21 employees. To better serve, you, the residents of DeSoto County, we expanded our fleet to a total of fourteen trucks that are diversified to handle the solid waste needs of our county. Womack Sanitation has always held to the philosophy that customer service and dependability are among the most important aspects of serving the citizens of Desoto County with solid waste removal. We have and will continue to uphold this pledge since we launched into a new phase of growth in our county with curbside collection in 2006.
