Trash & Recycling

Trash

The City of Hallsville contracts with an outside waste management company for solid waste collection and recycling. 

Dayne's Waste Disposal Inc. is the approved residential waste collector for the City of Hallsville. Trash pickup is Wednesday.  Please check the City of Hallsville's Facebook page for changes to trash pick-up days because of holidays or weather.

Trash should be at the curb the evening before.  Trash rates are $15.80 a month.   

• Any trash can that is 45 gallons in size or bigger, will no longer be dumped starting March 1, 2023.  If you choose to use these types of trash cans, that is fine, as long as everything is bagged in 13 gallon bags or larger and weigh less than 50 pounds.  (Example - 3 or 4 trash cans that are 44 gallons in size or less will still be dumped without being bagged as long as it weighs less than 50 pounds)

Bulky trash pick-up is the third Wednesday of each month.
Bulky items include:

Furniture/beds, microwaves, or other sizable waste materials

Recycling

There is a recycling bin located at the Community Center, 324 E. Hwy OO, that you can take glass, newspapers, office waste, paper & magazines, and cardboard.  Cardboard: Remove all contents. Please flatten.  

NO STYROFOAM PACKING MATERIAL

You do not need to use any bags when using the recycling bin.  When residents use the recycling bin, they expect all material in that dumpster to be recyclable.  Please keep in mind that plastic bags are not recyclable, so they encourage using a cardboard box or reusable plastic tub to help transport your material to the location.  If you decide that plastic bags are more convenient, you can still throw the bag of recycled material in the dumpster.  We've been told their workers will then break open the bag at the Material Recovery Facility and recycle the contents.
