Dallas brush and bulky item collection

A once-a-month kerbside collection of brush and bulky items, up to ten cubic yards. No booking needed, but the set-out window is strict.

Right for you if

  • You can wait for your month, and you have more than one van-load of it.
  • It has to cost nothing.
  • You cannot move it yourself. They come and collect.

Look elsewhere if

  • It is one small thing you could drop off yourself.
  • It is business waste.
  • It is more than a household quantity.
  • It is paint, solvent, gas bottles or anything else hazardous.

Something wrong here?

Why use it

This runs on a monthly cycle rather than on request, so the thing to find out first is which week is yours. Then set material out between the Thursday and the Sunday before that week, not earlier, because an early set-out is a code problem rather than a head start. The allowance is generous at ten cubic yards, and once a calendar year you can request an oversize collection of up to twenty through 311. Stoves, washers, dryers and water heaters are fine; anything holding coolant, gasoline or other chemicals is not.

Where your things go

A named destination is worth more than a stated intention, and both are worth more than silence. This is the row to read before you book: if your item's row is empty, ask them on the phone and tell us what they say.

Not documented yet. This operator has not published what happens to each kind of item, and we have not been able to establish it from anywhere else. That is the gap, stated rather than hidden. If you ask them, tell us what they say.

Does it actually work

The part no company website tells you. Some of this comes from our checks, some from readers who used the service, and where nobody has told us yet, it says so.

What happens to it

  • Collected by the council
  • Disposed of

This describes the route the item takes, as the operator states it. We do not claim a recovery rate we have not seen evidence for.

What readers told us

Used them recently?

How long you waited, what they refused, whether anyone picked up the phone. Those are the three facts no website publishes and the ones the next reader needs.
