Collection day for all City of Lake Dallas residents is on every Monday. On collection day, place your carts out for collection no later than 7:00 a.m., but no earlier than 6 p.m. Sunday evening. Carts should be removed from the street Monday evening.
Reminders:
Between collection days, carts must be stored out of public view. For missed service or to request an additional trash cart, please contact us.
Only trash that is in a green Waste Management cart will be collected. Each residential unit shall be allowed to place up to two (2) additional plastic bags outside of the cart in the event that the cart(s) is/are full. If additional household waste in excess of two additional bags must be collected, you must contact us by Friday before 12:00 p.m. prior to your scheduled pick up the following Monday, in order to schedule a bulk pick up. If this amount of additional household waste is consistently generated and an excessive number of bulk pick ups are requested, such residential unit will be required to obtain a second cart.
Please do not put any items that contain chemicals or liquids in your carts, these items are considered Household Hazardous Waste (HHW). A notice will be included with your bill when a Household Hazardous Waste Collection event will take place.
