Rowlett, TX Trash & Recycling: Bulk Item Disposal (2026)

Rowlett's brush and bulk collection is part of the city-contracted Republic Services program. The service allows 'up to 2 cubic yards per week' at no extra charge, with a per-yard charge for additional volume (the Brush and Bulk page lists $12.00 per cubic yard; the Trash and Recycle Collection page lists $12.60 per cubic yard for additional service). Set-out rules require items to be 'neatly stacked and set out front - no alley pickups,' and 'brush must be out by 7 a.m. on your regular scheduled solid waste pickup day.' Accepted items include major household appliances (except refrigerators and freezers), furniture and microwaves, hot water heaters, fencing in 4-foot by 6-foot sections, and minor remodeling debris. Prohibited items include 'dirt, rock and concrete,' automobile parts, tires and batteries, liquids such as paint and oil, and hazardous materials including herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers, and pool chemicals. Monthly collection is automatic with no call-in required; for off-cycle pickups, residents can call 972-422-2341 or email rowlettbulkquotes@republicservices.com with their name, address, phone number, and optional photos for a quote. As an additional option, residents may dispose of debris at no charge at the CM Hinton Landfill twice yearly with a required pass. Note that bulky trash placed improperly (for example, left out at the front of a property as accumulated debris rather than staged for collection) can also be addressed under the city's trash/debris code (Code Sec. 22-123).
