Texas trash & bulky-item guides
Browse 32 reviewed city guides, then use the local page for the actual collection schedule, limits and service eligibility.
What changes across Texas
Texas does not have one statewide bulky-trash schedule. City sanitation departments, contracted haulers and local solid-waste systems set the curbside rules. For chemicals and other household hazardous waste, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality maintains statewide guidance and local-program contacts.
Important: A state resource does not create one statewide couch, mattress or appliance pickup rule. The city, county, HOA or contracted hauler serving the address usually controls curbside bulky collection.
