You want to know it is handled.
When the next collection does not fit your plans, choose a Dropcurb pickup day. Updates keep you informed, and completion photos show when the booked items are gone.
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.

Rowlett collects up to 2 cubic yards of brush and bulky material a week with no call in required, on the same day as the regular solid waste and recycling collection, with a frequency to confirm because the city pages disagree.
City cost & eligibility
From $12.6 per cubic yard for the additional service beyond the two cubic yard weekly allowance, published as 12.60 per cubic yard on the trash and recycle page and 12.00 per cubic yard on the brush and bulk page, with a call in off cycle pickup available for a further additional fee. Rowlett residential customers, because bulk and brush service is residential only and commercial customers arrange it separately with Republic Services.
When & how
Set the material out at the front on the household's regular solid waste and recycling collection day, neatly stacked between the curb and the sidewalk and out by 7 a.m.
Get it ready
Keep the pile within 2 cubic yards, with a washer and dryer given by the city as the reference size, keep it clear of water meters, fire hydrants, alleys, sidewalks, driveways and roadways so the collection is not blocked, and keep dirt, rock, concrete, auto parts, tires, batteries, liquids and hazardous material out of the pile.
Furniture is named on the city's bulky waste definition and acceptable list, so a couch rides the weekly two cubic yard allowance.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Included in the weekly residential collection within the two cubic yard brush and bulky allowance; anything beyond that allowance carries the published per cubic yard charge.
When & how
Put the piece out at the front on the regular solid waste and recycling collection day, neatly stacked and out by 7 a.m.
Get it ready
Keep the piece within the weekly allowance, roll and tie carpeting rather than leaving it loose, cut fencing into 4 by 6 foot sections if it goes out on the same load, and keep the pile clear of meters, hydrants, alleys, sidewalks and driveways.
Major household appliances are accepted on the weekly bulk allowance except refrigerators and freezers, which the city excludes and the county collection centre also refuses.
City cost & eligibility
An appliance other than a refrigerator or freezer rides the two cubic yard weekly allowance at no separate charge, but the city's acceptable list excludes refrigerators and freezers and the county centre refuses large appliances, so confirm the unit and its route with Republic Services on 972-422-2341.
When & how
Put the accepted appliance out with the weekly brush and bulky collection by 7 a.m. on the regular collection day, and confirm the route first if it is a refrigerator or freezer.
Get it ready
Keep hot water heaters, microwaves, small appliances and other major appliances within the weekly allowance, and treat a refrigerator or freezer as a separate question because no local published route covers it.
Two cubic yards a week on the normal collection day
Rowlett allows up to 2 cubic yards of brush and bulky material a week with no call in required, and the city gives a washer and dryer as the reference size for that allowance. The service runs on the regular solid waste and recycling collection day, the material has to be neatly stacked at the front between the curb and the sidewalk, and it must be out by 7 a.m. There are no alley pickups, and the pile has to stay clear of water meters, fire hydrants, alleys, sidewalks, driveways and roadways. Anything beyond the allowance is charged by the cubic yard, with the trash page publishing 12.60 per cubic yard and the brush page publishing 12.00 for the same line.
What the acceptable list covers, and its one appliance exception
The city's acceptable list covers all other major household appliances except refrigerator and freezer, furniture, microwaves and other small household appliances, hot water heaters, debris from minor remodelling performed by the resident, and fencing in 4 by 6 foot sections. Bulky waste is defined to include lamps, bicycles, large toys and swing sets, vacuum cleaners, aluminium and plastic resin lawn furniture and rolled carpeting. The unacceptable list covers dirt, rock and concrete, automobile parts, tires and batteries, liquids such as paint, motor oil and solvents, and other hazardous materials such as herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers and pool chemicals.
Chemicals and small electronics go to the county centre
Hazardous material is refused on the collection route and instead goes to the Dallas County Home Chemical Collection Center at 11234 Plano Road in Dallas, which is free for Rowlett residents who bring a driver's licence and a utility bill and is open Tuesdays from 9:00am to 7:30pm, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 8:30am to 5:00pm and the second and fourth Saturdays from 9:00am to 3:00pm. Computers, cell phones and small electronics are accepted there, but televisions and large appliances are on the do not bring list, and residents of a non participating city pay a minimum of 100.00.
Two free debris trips a year at the county landfill
Rowlett residents may dispose of debris at no charge at the CM Hinton Landfill twice per calendar year, but they have to obtain a landfill pass from the City of Rowlett first. The pass route sits alongside the weekly brush and bulky collection rather than replacing it, and it is the city's second published option for a load that runs beyond what the curb allowance covers.
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.

Use the weekly brush and bulky allowance
A household with a couch, an appliance, rolled carpeting, bundled branches or another residential item that fits two cubic yards.
Cost & conditions

City of Rowlett with Republic Services and the Dallas County home chemical programme
Arrange an off cycle pickup with Republic Services
A household with more than the weekly allowance, or with an item that needs to go out on a different day.
Cost & conditions
The city states that a call in off cycle pickup is available for an additional fee and publishes the per cubic yard rate for the additional service rather than a single pickup price, so confirm the load and the cost with Republic Services.
Arrange it
Call Republic Services on 972-422-2341 or email the bulk quotes address with a name, address and phone number, optionally attaching photos of all four sides of the pile, and set the material out on the day the company gives.
An extra cost service on top of the weekly allowance, and the hauler asks to be given up to 24 hours to respond.

Anything beyond that is charged by the cubic yard, and an off cycle call in pickup can be arranged for an additional fee on 972-422-2341.

How does an appliance go out in Rowlett?+
All other major household appliances are on the acceptable list for the weekly brush and bulky collection, and hot water heaters and small appliances are named as well, so they ride the 2 cubic yard weekly allowance on the regular collection day.
