No charge. One free bulky or large brush pickup per quarter per household, limited to three cubic yards of material. Extra bulky collections are available on request for an additional fee, and the household still has the separate free allowance of five cubic yards a month at the landfill on proof of a Buda utility bill.
City collection Mattress collection is available in Buda for a fee, and the city states plainly that mattresses and box springs are charged a fee as well as being excluded from the free monthly landfill allowance. Both the city and the franchise holder state that mattress and box spring collection carries a fee without publishing an amount, and mattresses are expressly excluded from the free five cubic yard monthly landfill allowance. Confirm the current fee with Texas Disposal Systems Customer Care at 844-873-7734 or with the city utility department at 512-295-8845.
City collection Large appliances are named among the bulky items the franchise holder collects, and a refrigerator or other unit containing refrigerant needs a signed statement before it can be taken.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Buda has one franchise holder for the whole curb: Texas Disposal Systems collects trash, recycling, green waste and bulky waste, and a household gets one free bulky or large brush pickup every quarter, capped at three cubic yards. Furniture, carpets, drained lawn equipment, large toys and large appliances are the bulky examples, while a mattress pickup and any extra bulky collection carry a fee. The same franchise gives residents five cubic yards a month of free self-haul at the landfill on proof of a Buda utility bill, and household chemicals go free to the San Marcos facility that serves Hays County.
Furniture is named among the bulky items the city's franchise holder collects, and each household gets one free bulky pickup a quarter, limited to three cubic yards of material.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. One free bulky or large brush pickup per quarter per household, limited to three cubic yards of material. Extra bulky collections are available on request for an additional fee, and the household still has the separate free allowance of five cubic yards a month at the landfill on proof of a Buda utility bill.
When & how
Schedule the quarterly pickup with Texas Disposal Systems Customer Care at 844-873-7734 or customercare@texasdisposal.com. Bundles must be no longer than four feet and weigh no more than 35 pounds.
Get it ready
Keep the set-out to the three cubic yard limit, sort furniture away from brush, and keep mattresses separate because they carry their own fee. Drain oil and gas from any lawn equipment before it goes out, and leave refrigerant appliances for the separate signed statement rule.
Mattress collection is available in Buda for a fee, and the city states plainly that mattresses and box springs are charged a fee as well as being excluded from the free monthly landfill allowance.
City cost & eligibility
Both the city and the franchise holder state that mattress and box spring collection carries a fee without publishing an amount, and mattresses are expressly excluded from the free five cubic yard monthly landfill allowance. Confirm the current fee with Texas Disposal Systems Customer Care at 844-873-7734 or with the city utility department at 512-295-8845.
When & how
Ask TDS Customer Care for the mattress collection and the fee at 844-873-7734, then set the set out for the day the company gives you. The quarterly bulky pickup can be used for the same trip only after the mattress fee is arranged.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress and box spring dry and together, and do not put the set in the trash cart. Because the set is charged separately, sort it from the rest of the bulky pile so the crew can tell what is being billed.
Large appliances are named among the bulky items the franchise holder collects, and a refrigerator or other unit containing refrigerant needs a signed statement before it can be taken.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Large appliances are included in the free quarterly bulky pickup, limited to three cubic yards per household, with extra collections available for an additional fee. A unit containing refrigerant must be accompanied by a signed statement confirming that the refrigerant was removed by a certified refrigeration technician.
When & how
Book the quarterly bulky pickup with TDS Customer Care at 844-873-7734, and have the refrigerant statement ready before the collection day if the unit contains refrigerant.
Get it ready
Empty and clean the unit, remove the doors or secure them the way the crew asks, and obtain the signed statement from a certified refrigeration technician if the appliance holds refrigerant. Drain and remove oil and gas from lawn equipment, which shares the same bulky stream.
Televisions are not named on the city pages or on the franchise holder's Buda page, so the waste wizard's item lookup or customer care has to confirm the route before a screen goes out.
City cost & eligibility
Neither the city's pages nor the hauler's own Buda page publishes a television route or price, so confirm whether a screen is collected in the quarterly bulky pickup, which is free within three cubic yards, and what it costs if it is not, by using the TDS What Goes Where tool or calling customer care at 844-873-7734.
When & how
Check the item in the TDS waste wizard or call customer care, then set the screen out only for the collection the company confirms.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from anything that powers on, keep the screen out of the trash and recycling carts, and protect the panel in transport. Keep batteries out of the carts as well, because they belong with the household chemicals route.
Small electronics are not named in the published city or hauler guidance for Buda, so the item lookup or customer care has to confirm whether the device rides the bulky collection.
City cost & eligibility
No electronics route or price is published on the city pages or the franchise holder's Buda page, so confirm the device with the TDS What Goes Where tool or customer care at 844-873-7734. Batteries are handled separately as household hazardous material.
When & how
Check the device in the waste wizard or call customer care, then use the collection the company confirms.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from anything that powers on, remove batteries and keep them for the household chemical route, and keep electronics out of the trash and recycling carts.
The city names a temporary roll-off franchise for larger loads, but construction material is not spelled out for the free monthly landfill allowance, so a renovation load has to be confirmed before it moves.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no construction rate. It states that the city has an exclusive franchise for temporary roll-off services through Texas Disposal Systems, and that residents may take up to five cubic yards of acceptable waste to the landfill each month at no cost with restrictions that may apply. Confirm the accepted material and the container price with TDS at 844-873-7734.
When & how
Call TDS for a roll-off container, or confirm with customer care whether the material fits the free monthly landfill allowance of five cubic yards before loading the vehicle. Cover the load for the landfill trip and bring a Buda utility bill showing solid waste services.
Get it ready
Keep construction material out of the trash, recycling and green waste carts, separate it by material, and cover any open load. Remember that mattresses are expressly excluded from the landfill allowance even though other household material is accepted.
Exercise equipment is not among the bulky examples the franchise holder lists, so the machine has to be confirmed before it is set out.
City cost & eligibility
The quarterly bulky pickup is free within three cubic yards and extra collections carry a fee, but fitness equipment is not named among the bulky examples. Confirm the machine and any extra collection charge with TDS customer care at 844-873-7734.
When & how
Call TDS customer care with the size and weight of the machine, then book the quarterly pickup or an extra collection once it is confirmed.
Get it ready
Break the machine down as far as it will go, keep loose weights with the frame so the crew can handle it, and remove any battery for the household chemical route. Keep the machine within the three cubic yard limit so the collection stays free.
Buda has two bulky routes: the free quarterly curbside collection of up to three cubic yards, and the free monthly self-haul allowance of five cubic yards at the landfill with a utility bill shown at the gate.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. One free bulky or large brush pickup per quarter, limited to three cubic yards per household, and up to five cubic yards of acceptable waste a month at the landfill at no cost with proof of a Buda utility bill showing solid waste services. Extra curbside collections and mattresses carry a fee, and mattresses are excluded from the landfill allowance.
When & how
Book the quarterly pickup with TDS customer care at 844-873-7734, or haul the load to the Creedmoor landfill with the utility bill ready and the load covered.
Get it ready
Bundle brush to four foot lengths and 35 pounds or less, drain oil and gas from lawn equipment, and keep mattresses and refrigerant appliances in their own arrangements because both need extra steps. Keep the green waste cart to leaves, grass, brush and yard trimmings, and never bag green waste in plastic.
Tires are not named on the city pages or the franchise holder's Buda page, so the route has to be confirmed before a tire is set out or loaded.
City cost & eligibility
Neither the city's pages nor the hauler's own Buda page publishes a tire route or price, so confirm whether a tire is accepted in the quarterly bulky collection, which is free within three cubic yards, or in the monthly landfill allowance of five cubic yards, by calling TDS customer care at 844-873-7734.
When & how
Call TDS customer care to confirm the tire route, then use the quarterly pickup or the covered landfill trip the company confirms.
Get it ready
Keep tires out of the trash, recycling and green waste carts, and confirm the count and rim condition when you call, since the answer decides whether they travel in the bulky collection or the landfill load.
Chemicals never go in a cart or a bulky pile. Buda residents use the San Marcos collection and reuse facility, which serves all Hays County residents free of charge.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free at the City of San Marcos Household Hazardous Waste Collection and Reuse Facility for all Hays County residents, with proof of residency required.
When & how
Take the material to the San Marcos facility, and confirm its current days and hours before the trip because the city page only publishes the eligibility and the material list.
Get it ready
Keep paint, weed killers, pesticides, drain cleaners, degreasers, used gas and oil, batteries, light bulbs, medical sharps and used cooking oil out of the carts and out of the bulky pile, and pack them so nothing leaks on the way. Sharps belong in a rigid container, and batteries must never go in the trash or recycling.
Book the quarterly bulky collection and keep it inside three cubic yards
Buda households get one free bulky or large brush pickup each quarter, scheduled with Texas Disposal Systems customer care, and each collection is limited to three cubic yards of material. Bundles may not exceed four feet in length or 35 pounds. Mattresses and box springs carry a fee, extra collections carry a fee, and any appliance holding refrigerant needs a signed statement from a certified technician before it can be collected.
Residents may take up to five cubic yards of acceptable waste to the Creedmoor landfill each month at no cost, but the load has to be covered and the driver shows a City of Buda utility bill that reflects solid waste services at the gate. Mattresses and box springs are excluded from that allowance and are charged a fee, and restrictions may apply to the material.
Trash pickup is limited to the trash cart, and single-stream recycling is the recycling cart plus one bundle of flattened and tied cardboard, a stack of ten. Green waste is limited to ten paper lawn bags or brush bundles, is for leaves, grass, brush and other yard trimmings, and plastic bags or bags containing trash are not collected. An extra trash cart costs more per month than an extra recycling cart.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.
