Showing ordinances that apply to Paloma Creek South, TX
Paloma Creek South is an unincorporated community (population 9,539) in Denton County, Texas. Because Paloma Creek South is not an incorporated city, it does not have its own municipal code. Instead, Denton County ordinances apply directly to properties here. The bulk item disposal rules below are the ones that govern your area.
Denton County does not provide bulk waste collection service in unincorporated areas but does operate household hazardous waste (HHW) collection events and provides access to the Denton County Landfill. Property owners must arrange bulk item disposal through their private hauler (often for an additional fee) or haul items to the landfill or transfer station themselves. The Denton County Household Hazardous Waste program accepts paints, chemicals, electronics, and other hazardous materials at scheduled events throughout the year.
Bulk waste disposal in unincorporated Denton County relies on a combination of private hauler services and county-supported facilities. Most private haulers serving the area offer scheduled bulk pickup for large items (furniture, appliances, mattresses) for an additional fee, typically $25 to $75 per pickup or included as a periodic service (often quarterly). The City of Denton Landfill at 1527 S. Mayhill Road accepts waste from Denton County residents at posted gate rates. Denton County partners with Keep Denton Beautiful and local municipalities to hold Household Hazardous Waste collection events approximately four to six times per year at rotating locations throughout the county. These free events accept paint, motor oil, pesticides, cleaning chemicals, batteries, electronics, and small appliances from Denton County residents with proof of residency. Construction and demolition debris may be disposed of at the landfill or through roll-off container services from private haulers. The county Environmental Health division can be reached at (940) 349-2860 for information about upcoming HHW events and disposal options.
Illegal dumping of bulk items on roads, vacant lots, or other properties is a criminal offense under Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 365. Penalties include fines up to $2,000 for amounts under 500 pounds and up to $10,000 for larger quantities. Dumping near water sources carries enhanced penalties. Report illegal dumping to Denton County at (940) 349-2860.
