 Garbage Pickup & Schedule

Allied Waste is the company that the City has contracted with to provide garbage, recyclables and bulk pick up services within the City of Rockwall. Residents are asked to place trash and recycle bins out at the alley or curb by 7:00 a.m.

If garbage is not placed at the alley or curb by 7:00 a.m., unfortunately, Trinity Waste will not come back to pick it up until your next scheduled day. Scheduled garbage/recycle days depend on the resident's location within the City. Residents have two garbage pickup days per week and one recycling day. Trash bags or cans cannot exceed 35 pounds. To help keep your City clean, please place garbage in bags before placing it in your trash can.

If you have any questions, please feel free to call the Utility Billing Department at (972) 771-7736.
