A clear count. An exact price.

Count the bags and boxes, not everything inside.

A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.

Filled bags and boxes

Count each trash bag or filled household box. Books and media go by the box. Clothes, bedding and shoes go by the filled bag. Toys packed together have a Box of toys choice. Ask us about unusually heavy or oversized bags and boxes first.

Empty cardboard and containers

Empty cardboard is a different choice: choose single empty boxes or tied bundles of 10 flattened boxes. Compacted bales have their own weight-based choices and require loading-dock access. A Storage bin choice covers the empty bin itself; ask us to confirm the contents if they are going too.

Furniture and other larger items

Add the actual larger item alongside your bags and boxes, such as a sofa, chair or mattress. It has its own price and preparation. Keep construction materials and items needing special handling out of ordinary household bags.

Furniture and household bulky items

Special rules apply

Pharr publishes no curbside bulky collection, so furniture goes to the city's Residential Collection Station at one dollar per cubic foot.

City cost & eligibility
From $1 for the published residential collection station fee per cubic foot. City of Pharr residents only. Businesses are not eligible for disposal at the station, and concrete and hazardous waste are not accepted there.
When & how
Load the furniture and take it to the Residential Collection Station, open Monday to Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to noon. Call (956) 402-4350 for the station's directions and current instructions.
Get it ready
Keep the load out of the garbage cart and away from the brush pile, and confirm the station is the right site for a household load before towing a trailer across town. Only Pharr residents may use it, with the fee charged by volume.

Mattresses and box springs

Special rules apply

Mattresses are not named in the city's rules, so the route is the Residential Collection Station and the department should confirm the piece first.

City cost & eligibility
From $1 for the published residential collection station fee per cubic foot. City of Pharr residents only, with no business loads and no concrete or hazardous waste accepted at the station.
When & how
Take the mattress to the Residential Collection Station during its published hours, and call (956) 402-4350 first if you want the item confirmed before loading.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress out of the cart and the brush pile, and keep it dry for the trip. The city publishes no mattress programme, so the station fee is charged by volume rather than per piece.

Appliances and refrigeration units

Special rules apply

A refrigeration unit is only collected when it is properly tagged for freon removal, and other appliances go to the Residential Collection Station.

City cost & eligibility
From $1 for the published residential collection station fee per cubic foot. City of Pharr residents only at the station, with no business loads and no concrete or hazardous waste. A refrigeration unit set out for collection has to be properly tagged for freon removal.
When & how
Have the refrigeration unit tagged for freon removal if it is to go out with the collection, or take the appliance to the Residential Collection Station during its published hours.
Get it ready
Arrange the freon removal and the tag before the unit goes to the curb, because the collection notice states that refrigeration units are not collected without it. Keep the appliance out of the recycling bins and confirm any metal appliance you are unsure about with the department on (956) 402-4350.

Televisions and electronics

Special rules apply

Pharr publishes no electronics programme, so a screen goes to the Residential Collection Station and the department should confirm it first.

City cost & eligibility
From $1 for the published residential collection station fee per cubic foot. City of Pharr residents only, with no business loads and no concrete or hazardous waste accepted at the station.
When & how
Take the device to the Residential Collection Station during its published hours, or call (956) 402-4350 to ask which office handles a screen and its recycling.
Get it ready
Keep electronics out of the garbage cart and out of the recycling bins at the drop-off sites, because the recycling center's published list covers paper, metal, plastics one and two, used oil and tires rather than televisions or computers. Confirm the item before loading a screen into a trailer.
Items accepted at the recycling center including tires and the annual hazardous waste ruleResidential collection station eligibility, fee and hours

Brush and yard trimmings

Accepted with preparation

Brush is collected on a four section rotation, one section a week, with clippings bagged rather than piled.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. City of Pharr households on the Waste Management collection service, with the city publishing no separate brush charge.
When & how
The city is divided into four sections and one section is serviced each week within a set month, so put the brush out for the week scheduled for your section.
Get it ready
Bag loose grass and small clippings instead of piling them, place brush at the curb or in the alley for the scheduled pickup, keep it away from walls, fences, gas meters, water meters and telephone boxes, keep vehicles clear of the pile, and never leave brush inside the property or put anything on an empty lot. Construction debris, bricks, concrete, tires, batteries and untagged refrigeration units are not part of this service.

Other household material and tires

Special rules apply

The cart takes weekly household trash only, so other household material goes to the Residential Collection Station and tires go to the Recycling Center.

City cost & eligibility
From $1 for the published residential collection station fee per cubic foot, with used tires accepted from city residents at the recycling center instead. City of Pharr residents only. Businesses are not eligible at the station, concrete and hazardous waste are refused there, and tires are accepted only from city residents at the recycling center.
When & how
Take household material the cart will not hold to the Residential Collection Station, open Monday to Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to noon, or the tires to the Recycling Center on the same hours.
Get it ready
Check the item against the collection notice before it goes out, because tires, batteries and refrigeration units are refused unless a refrigeration unit is properly tagged for freon removal. The recycling center accepts paper, newspaper, books, magazines, cardboard, tin, aluminum cans, metal piping, broken metal car parts, used motor oil and filters, and plastics one and two as well.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Pharr households have two published places to take material the cart will not hold. The Residential Collection Station is open to city residents only, refuses concrete and hazardous waste, and charges one dollar per cubic foot, with hours Monday to Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to noon, and the department can be reached on (956) 402-4350 for directions. The Pharr Recycling Center on the same contact takes paper, metal, plastics one and two, used motor oil and filters, used tires from city residents, and hazardous waste such as antifreeze, paint and batteries once a year by prior call, with citizen drop-off areas at 1015 E Ferguson Ave and 7101 S Cage Blvd open around the clock. Construction debris, bricks and concrete are never collected at the curb and are not accepted at the station, so that material needs a private landfill or container service.

Can you pick up bags of junk today?

Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the booked bags and boxes outside and accessible according to your confirmation.

Do I count every object inside a bag or box?

Empty cardboard is separate, with individual empty boxes and bundles of 10 flattened boxes. Heavy, oversized or unusual contents need a photo review before booking.

Can you pick up a small loose pile of household junk?

Yes. Estimate how many trash bags the small household pile would fill, and bag or box as much as possible. Select furniture and other larger items separately. There is no extra charge just because the pile is loose. Send a photo first if the count or contents are unclear. A household Dumpster Bag choice does not accept construction debris.

Can I book bags, boxes and furniture together?

Yes. Select the bags and boxes, then add each larger item using its own catalog choice. The booking shows one combined price for the selected items.
