Help US, Help YOU. Below are some of the FREE services we offer to our residents. Keep in mind, we have a limited number of trailers, and kits. So, at times, there may be a waiting period to receive them, as they are first come, first served. 🤠Bulk Refuse Self-Help Program: 👇 This program involves a bulk refuse trailer (similar to a roll off). We drop the trailer off at your request, give you 24 hours to fill it with whatever your heart desires (minus construction materials), then we pick it up AND dump it for you. For FREE! This program is intended to make it easier for you to rid your property of large, bulk items, and cut down on alley-way debris. Please do NOT place large items in your alleyways, or NEAR the dumpster. Our trucks are not equipped to pick those items up, and they often block our access. Call us. We will help you. (806) 273-0977 🤠Limb Pick Up: 👇 If you've trimmed your trees/shrubs recently and aren't sure what to do with the remaining limbs, call us! (806) 273-0977. We have a truck specifically for this, in small quantities. Your other option is to access our Limb Pile yourself, (located off of the Pampa Highway), and dump as many as you'd like, at your convenience. The limb pile is open 6 days a week (weather permitting). M-F during business hours, and until 12:00 PM on Saturdays. Please do not leave them near your dumpster, or in your alleyway. Our trash trucks are not equipped to pick up limbs. Doing so leads to alley obstructions, and an influx of unwanted critters. Not to mention, it irritates your neighbors. Let us help! ** If you hire someone to cut your trees, ensure that they know they are responsible for discarding them appropriately. ** 🤠Lawn Maintenance Self-Help Kit: 👇 These are extremely limited at this time; however, they are available on a first come first served basis, for FREE. This kit includes a mower, weed eater, and a trimming tool. It is intended for residents who may not have the proper equipment to take care of their property. In order to rent one of these kits, you MUST have a valid I.D. These are not for commercial use or intended to be used to generate income. We know buying these items new can be expensive. Don't let your property get out of hand. Let us help! Contact our Code Enforcement Office, at (806) 273-0910. If your dumpster is overflowing, or you need an off-cycle trash pick-up, call (806) 273-0977. Need to report a property for a code violation? (806) 273-0910
