Household Garbage: Waste should be placed in the cart near the curb by 7 AM.

Heavy Trash: Each week, Texas Pride Disposal will collect up to three bulky items such as furniture, appliances or objects that cannot fit in the garbage cart. Please place at curb next to the garbage cart.
Yard Debris: Weekly collection of yard debris is limited to 15 bags, not exceeding 35 pounds each. Branches should be tied in bundles not exceeding 40 pounds (less than 2" in diameter and cut to 4-foot lengths) and limited to 4-cubic yards per service day. Note: Commercial tree services must haul off their own limbs.
Super Heavy Trash: There will also be an additional quarterly pickup of bulky items, bags and bundles. Volume cannot exceed 6-cubic yards (about the size of a small car).
Items Excluded from Collection: Dirt, rocks, bricks, concrete, liquid paints, fuels, oils, tires, pesticides, fertilizer, batteries, pallets, construction debris, and hazardous waste are NOT allowed. Please contact Texas Pride Disposal to discuss solutions for proper disposal of these items.
Pay Piles: To dispose of large amounts of debris, please contact Texas Pride Disposal for a quote.
Additional Garbage & Recycling Carts: These are available for an additional $2.00/cart per month. After September 15, please email Texas Pride Disposal to request an additional cart if needed. Carts will be delivered within one week of request, and charges will be added to your water bill.
Smaller Carts: The standard 95-gallon carts will be delivered, but a smaller 65-gallon cart is available for both garbage and recycling upon request. Note: There is no decrease in rate for a smaller cart. Requests can be made after September 15.
Small Commercial Accounts: Service will be on Tuesday and Friday for garbage. Recycling and heavy trash are included, and will be picked up once a week on Tuesday service day.
Holiday Schedule: Texas Pride Disposal observes three holidays: New Year's Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. If your service falls on a holiday, service will be provided the next day.
