Summary
Celina's trash service does not pick up brush or yard debris: owners must handle disposal of dead trees, tree limbs, and other bulky materials themselves.
Brick, broken concrete, lumber, dirt, automobile frames, discarded automobile tires, dead trees, tree limbs and other bulky materials shall be disposed of by the owner.
Full Breakdown
Under § 13.02.005 of the Celina Code of Ordinances, dead trees, tree limbs, and other bulky materials, along with brick, broken concrete, lumber, and similar debris, are excluded from routine city trash pickup and must be disposed of by the property owner. The city's trash truck won't collect anything not prepared and placed as the article requires (§ 13.02.006), and dumping yard debris in a street or alley is separately unlawful (§ 13.02.007). Residents typically arrange private haul-off or self-haul brush to a disposal site rather than setting it at the curb for city collection.
Violations & Fines
Placing yard debris or trash in a street or alley is unlawful under § 13.02.007; improper container placement under § 13.02.003 is a class C misdemeanor punishable by up to $500 per day.
