Full Breakdown
Residential solid waste service in Cedar Hill includes once-per-week trash collection in a 96-gallon roll-out cart, once-per-week single-stream recycling in a separate cart, and scheduled bulk and brush collection. Route days vary by neighborhood; residents can look up their day on the city's solid waste page. When a major holiday (New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas) falls on or before a collection day, service typically slides one day later for the rest of that week. Acceptable household waste includes bagged garbage; prohibited materials include hazardous waste, automotive fluids, batteries, electronics in the regular cart, tires, and construction debris from contractor jobs. Special arrangements are needed for those.
