Observed Holidays
Seasonal Information
Spring
March - MaySpring landscaping generates excess brush. Remember that grass clippings must be bagged, while branches must be tied in 4-foot bundles under 50 pounds. For massive amounts of loose, unbundled brush, residents must call Republic Services at 817-332-7301 to arrange a paid special pickup.
Summer
June - AugustHot Texas summers accelerate the decay of food waste, leading to odors and pests. Euless requires all loose trash to be securely bagged, even if placed inside a personal garbage can with a tight lid, to keep the neighborhoods clean and litter-free.
Winter
December - FebruaryEuless only observes Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Day. During these holiday weeks, if your pickup falls on or after the holiday, your service will shift by one day, meaning a normal Friday collection will occur on Saturday.
Local Tips & Community Info
Turning Your Texas Trash into Treasure: Where to Score Cash for Cans?
Did you know some of your everyday recyclables could actually earn you a few bucks right here in the DFW area? While Euless might not have a specific buyback center within city limits, nearby cities often do. Keep an eye out for scrap metal yards that will take things like old appliances (after you've gotten them ready, of course!). For those aluminum cans and plastic bottles, Texas doesn't have a statewide bottle redemption program like some other states, so it's best to check with local recycling centers that might offer cash payments for bulk items. Sometimes, the City of Euless itself partners with recycling initiatives for special events, so keep an eye on their official communications!
Give Your Gently Used Stuff a Second Life in Euless!
Before you toss those items that are still good, think about giving them a new home! Euless has some fantastic local options. For clothing, furniture, and household goods, consider dropping off donations at the Salvation Army or Goodwill stores in the surrounding Mid-Cities area. They're always looking for items to support their programs. If you've got building materials, tools, or home improvement items that are in good shape, the Habitat for Humanity ReStore in nearby Arlington or Dallas could be a perfect fit. Donating not only helps others but also keeps usable items out of the landfill.
Keeping Euless Beautiful: Tackling Dumps and Sprucing Up Our Neighborhoods!
Nobody likes seeing trash dumped where it shouldn't be, right? While Euless doesn't have frequent, city-wide community clean-up events advertised regularly, keeping our city tidy is a team effort. If you spot illegal dumping, the best course of action is to report it directly to the City of Euless. They have specific departments that handle these issues. You can usually find reporting information on the city's official website. Sometimes, neighborhood associations or local groups organize their own clean-up days, so it's worth connecting with your local community groups to see if anything is planned. Keeping Euless clean starts with all of us!

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the weight limit for my personal trash can in Euless?
The City of Euless mandates that your personal garbage can, heavy-duty trash bag, or tied brush bundle must weigh no more than 50 pounds and have a volume capacity not exceeding 35 gallons.
Do I need to buy blue bags for recycling?
The base utility recycling rate covers the use of transparent blue bags, which you must purchase yourself at local grocery or hardware stores. If you prefer a reusable container, you can contact the Water Utility Office to rent an 18-gallon bin or a wheeled 65-gallon cart for an additional monthly fee.
How do I dispose of an old refrigerator or freezer?
Republic Services will pick up old refrigerators on your bulk day, but federal law requires all harmful chemicals like Freon to be removed first. A certified technician must remove the refrigerant and attach a signed verification letter and certificate directly to the appliance before it is set on the curb.
Where can I throw away concrete and bricks from a DIY project?
Items that cannot be crushed in standard garbage trucks—like stone, bricks, and concrete—will not be picked up curbside. Euless residents can use one of their four free annual passes to drop these heavy items off at the Arlington Landfill on Mosier Valley Road on Saturdays.
