One Government, One Service Area

After a 2000 referendum, Hartsville and Trousdale County consolidated into the Hartsville/Trousdale County metropolitan government. In census terms that makes Hartsville a city-county of about 11,600 people, though most of its land is rural. The compact downtown sits along the West Fork of Goose Creek, a short distance north of the Cumberland River, and the courthouse there is the seat of the combined government.

Two state routes carry most traffic: SR 25, which links Carthage to the southeast with Sumner County to the west, and SR 141, which runs south to Lebanon and north into Macon County. Settled in 1785 and named for early settler James Hart, who ran a ferry here, the town later saw the 1862 Battle of Hartsville, and in 1977 TVA began a nuclear plant nearby that it canceled in 1984.

Calls From Downtown, Farms and Institutions

Because the city and county are one, our Hartsville service area ranges from houses near the downtown business district to farmhouses miles out on country roads. Most calls would come from families after a death, injury or illness at home. The area also includes the Tennessee College of Applied Technology's Hartsville campus, Trousdale County High School and a medium-security prison, so institutional settings are part of the picture.

What to Expect From Our Service

Hartsville has no office of ours; we are a mobile service from the Nashville area. Call 615-513-5112 at any hour. We will ask what happened, whether law enforcement or the medical examiner was involved and whether the property has been released, then explain the work and how long the area should stay closed. On site, we wear protective equipment, contain the area, clean and then disinfect with EPA-registered products per label directions, and dispose of contaminated materials appropriately.

We serve neighboring Lafayette, Carthage and Gallatin, and you can read more about how we cover Trousdale County as a whole.
