Garbage should not be placed at curbside more than twenty-four (24) hours prior to pick-up day.

Household garbage and trash
are collected from single-family residences twice weekly.  Items must be placed on the curb and contained in a secured bag, box, or can, or tied and bundled and be fifty (50) lbs. or less in weight.

Brush, tree limbs, and fencing
 must be tied in bundles not to exceed four feet (4’) in length and fifty (50) lbs. in weight.  Up to four (4) bundles will be collected per pickup.

Bulky items
, including stoves, furniture, hot water heaters, dishwashers, etc., placed on the curb will be picked up as part of the regular collection service. Customers are allowed four large-item pick-ups of up to four cubic yards per year.  Additional large-item pick-ups will be billed at $9 per cubic yard, with a $48 minimum.

Construction or renovation debris may be collected through IESI for a fee.  These items require special equipment and, without special arrangements, can slow service for others.

Items that will not be collected include construction debris, building materials, dirt, rocks, tires, oil and oil filters, batteries, and hazardous wastes. IMPORTANT NOTE: Federal law prohibits collection of air conditioner, refrigerator or freezer units unless certification is provided that the CFCs have been removed by a certified technician.

For non-bundled brush
stacked at curbside, IESI will remove brush for a fee.  To arrange for this service, contact IESI at 817.222.2221 or visit online at IESI.com.  A representative will quote a price for the disposal based on the amount of non-bundled brush.

Colleyville residents do not have free access to any area landfill. Dump charges are based on the weight or size of the load and will vary from site to site. Disposal of biodegradable items (tree limbs and brush) may be less expensive if taken to an area composter. Click here for a list of landfills.
