In Leander, bulky waste that doesn't fit in the cart — washers, dryers, water heaters, furniture and similar items — is handled case by case by Al Clawson Disposal (ACDI) for an additional fee, arranged by calling 512-930-5490. The city also references a Bag Tag Program for scheduling pickups. Brush has separate cut-and-bundle rules.
The City of Leander handles bulky waste through its hauler, Al Clawson Disposal, Inc. (ACDI), rather than as part of standard weekly collection. According to the city, bulky waste items 'that do not fit in the container will be handled case-by-case basis for an additional fee.' Examples the city lists include washers, dryers, water heaters, and furniture. Residents must call ACDI at 512-930-5490 to make arrangements for these items, and the city also points residents to a 'Bag Tag Program' for scheduled pickup. Bulky items are distinct from brush and yard waste, which has its own handling: branches must be cut to no more than 4 feet long, bundled in groups of 35 pounds or less, and tied with string or rope, while bagged leaves are collected on the regular day. Because bulky pickup is fee-based and scheduled, residents should not set large items at the curb expecting free routine collection; doing so could leave material sitting out and potentially raise code-enforcement concerns about accumulated debris. For exact bulky-item fees, eligible items, and scheduling, contact ACDI directly, as the city's public pages direct residents to the hauler for those arrangements rather than publishing a fixed fee schedule.
Bulky disposal is a fee-based, scheduled service through ACDI, so the main 'rule' is to arrange pickup in advance (512-930-5490) rather than leaving large items at the curb. Items dumped or abandoned rather than properly scheduled — or set out and left for extended periods — can become a code-enforcement debris/nuisance issue or, if dumped off-site, fall under Texas illegal-dumping law. There is no separate municipal fine schedule published for bulky set-out on the city pages.
