Monthly Bulky Item Limits Pearland, TX — City of Pearland Bulk Trash Rules
Monthly Bulky Item Limits in Pearland
The City of Pearland offers a curbside heavy trash (bulk waste) service, but it comes with weekly limits. Here’s what you need to know to stay compliant and save effort.
City-Allowed Weekly Limit
- 2 cubic yards per week, which is approximately 6 ft × 3 ft × 3 ft—or about 12 to 15 large outdoor bags.
- Bulky items are collected on your recycling day each week, not the regular trash day.
What’s Accepted Within the Limit
- Furniture & Mattresses — Small household pieces only
- Appliances (with proof of Freon removal) — Refrigerators, washers, etc., must be tagged by a licensed technician
- Brush & Limbs — Tied bundles, up to 4 ft long, ≤ 40 lbs, diameter ≤ 18″
- Bagged Green Waste — Preferably in clear or paper bags; can alternatively go in the trash cart if it fits
What Pearland’s Bulk Service Doesn’t Cover
- Construction debris (drywall, concrete, wood, etc.)
- Hazardous or biohazard materials
- Large logs, dirt, rocks, or oversized tree limbs
- Items exceeding the 2-cubic-yard weekly limit
Exceeding the Limit? Here’s What to Do
- Need more than 2 cubic yards? Call Frontier Waste Solutions to request a special pickup for oversized loads. They’ll provide pricing and scheduling.
- Have non-accepted items? Consider using a private junk hauling service like Bubba’s for full-service pickup—no limits, all items accepted.
