Bulk Junk Removal
View →$79first item · +$29 each more
Garage cleanouts, move-out piles, renovation debris. Houston's monthly heavy trash schedule can't handle urgent multi-item jobs — the planned 311 on-demand system remains on hold. Dropcurb handles the full load any day — priced upfront.
Houston's bulk pickup has limits — we don't
Houston implemented a new 5-day trash pickup rule in March 2026 — residents now call 311 to schedule bulky item collections. But heavy trash pickup was paused again shortly after launch due to staffing shortages. The Solid Waste overtime budget was exceeded early in the fiscal year. 311 missed-pickup service requests continue spiking. The city is exploring landfill partnerships to curb illegal dumping and encourages residents to use one of six depository stations. The old monthly schedule generated 659 illegal dumping reports in just 4 weeks. Gainsborough Waste transfer stations charge ~$40 per pickup truck load (first-time customers get $25 off). Snap Junk Removal charges $33-48/cubic yard with a $185 minimum (3-yard minimum). Fire Dawgs starts at $99 (curbside minimum). Tex Mex Junk Removal: quarter load $165, half load $350, full load $550 at (832) 589-4987. Trash N Dash charges $149-$600+ based on volume. Average Houston junk removal runs $237-$248 according to Homeyou (21,851 local projects). 1-800-GOT-JUNK serves Houston at $150-600+. LoadUp starts at $79 per item.

Does Houston offer free bulk pickup?
Yes. Houston implemented a new 5-day trash pickup rule in March 2026 — residents must now call 311 to schedule bulky item collections as staffing shortages impact regular service. The rollout has been rocky: heavy trash pickup was paused again after initial launch. Monthly neighborhood route schedule technically continues but with chronic backlogs. The city's 311 center has seen a sharp spike in missed-pickup service requests. The Solid Waste overtime budget was exceeded early in the fiscal year. Houston also exploring landfill partnerships to curb illegal dumping. Six depository stations available for self-haul. Free for residents. Appliances, electronics, tires, and construction debris excluded.
