Large Vegetative Debris Pick-Up Begins July 19

Beginning Friday, July 19, contractors will begin the process of picking up large vegetative debris on both the east and west sides of town. Unfortunately, we cannot give specific dates or times of when their trucks will be in each neighborhood or subdivision.

Removal of fencing and construction debris will occur AFTER all vegetative debris has been removed.

If you have not already done so, please move all vegetative debris you would like removed from your property within 10 feet of the curb in front of your home.Please keep vegetative debris separate from fencing/construction debris and do not place in front of your mailbox or near a fire hydrant. Cars should be parked in driveways or garages and not in the street. Leaves and small branches should be placed in bags and separated from large vegetative and fencing/construction debris. Scroll down for more details on how to separate your debris.

Bagged green waste

AmeriWaste will begin picking up bagged green waste from residential customers starting Sunday, July 21 and continue for the following two Sundays. These pickups will only include bagged vegetation (leaves, small branches, etc.). The schedule will go as follows:

  • Sunday, July 21: If your normal trash service days are Wednesdayand Saturday
  • Sunday, July 28: If your normal trash service days are Mondayand Thursday
  • Sunday, August 4: If your normal trash service days are Tuesdayand Friday

Bagged Green Waste Drop-Off at Hometown Heroes Park

For residents who don't want to wait for bagged green waste pickup, you can drop-off your bagged green waste (no other storm debris will be accepted) at Hometown Heroes Park. Drop-offs will take place in the large westside parking lot adjacent to Dickinson Avenue. Enter from the League City Parkway entrance ONLY. Please bring your driver's license as proof of residency. Hours for bagged green waste drop-off will be daily from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. The need for a drop-off venue will be reevaluated after the weekend, so stay tuned for more details.

Debris Separation Guidelines

Do NOT place storm debris in the middle of the street, in stormwater drains, inlets, or ditches. Keep a 10-foot radius clearance from fire hydrants to ensure fire protection for your neighborhood. Please move your vehicle(s) off the street and into your driveway to ensure trucks can safely maneuver. No bagged food or household hazardous waste can be included with your debris.

Place your storm debris in three separate piles at your curb:

  1. Large, unbagged vegetative debris (trees, tree limbs, etc.). Bundle small branches when possible. Large tree limbs do NOT need to be bundled.
  2. Fencing/construction debris.
  3. Bagged green waste (leaves, small branches, etc.).

Household Trash

To keep the debris pickup process efficient, please separate your trash bins/bags and recycling bins away from any vegetative or storm debris. Garbage cans, bags, and recycling bins should be placed on the curb during your regularly scheduled AmeriWaste collection day.
