Yard waste rules in Houston

Houston collects tree waste such as branches, limbs and brush curbside in odd-numbered months, alternating with junk waste, and the same 8-cubic-yard limit applies. Tree waste is also accepted at the city’s Neighborhood Depository and Recycling Centers. After major storms, crews focus on storm debris first, so regular tree waste pickups can fall behind.

How it works with the City of Houston Solid Waste Management Department

Houston’s city heavy trash service alternates by month: junk waste such as furniture and appliances is collected in even-numbered months, and tree waste in odd-numbered months, on the heavy trash day assigned to your neighborhood. The city’s HTX Collects app shows your schedule.

For a few bags, city collection works well. For a tree’s worth of branches, a torn-down shed or a full yard cleanup in Houston, a crew clears it in one visit instead of waiting until the next even-numbered month.

Recycling, donation and local tips in Houston

Junk waste and tree waste are also accepted at the city’s Neighborhood Depository and Recycling Centers, which is handy if you can haul a load yourself.

Green waste goes to composting facilities where they’re available, and wood, metal and plastic from sheds, fences and playsets are separated for recycling.

How yard waste removal pricing works in Houston

Every yard waste removal job in Houston is quoted individually, and the price is agreed before anything is loaded. It depends on:

  • Truck space used
  • Weight of the materials
  • Stairs, elevators and carrying distance
  • Mattresses, appliances and electronics
  • Disposal and recycling fees

Compared with 8 cubic yards, junk waste in even months only through the City of Houston Solid Waste Management Department, a quote from us covers whatever amount you have, with the labor, the driving and the disposal in one figure.
