We’re heading into Texas spring, and if you’ve lived here long enough, you know how unpredictable it can be. One day it’s sunny and warm, the next we’re dealing with a last-minute freeze, hailstorm, or tornado watch. Extreme weather impacts most things going on in the metroplex, including city services.
Spring also brings holidays like Easter and Spring Break, which means busier schedules for city services and private junk removal companies alike. More people are home, tackling projects they usually don’t have time for, leading to an increase in bulk trash pickup requests.
Legal holidays can push regular trash pickup back by a day or more, and that can be even more substantial if your bulk schedule is less frequent. Some neighborhoods adjust differently, so it’s always best to check with Dallas Sanitation Services or your local neighborhood association to confirm any changes.
Spring freezes, ice storms, and severe weather can temporarily shut down bulk trash pickup, sometimes for several days. The severity and duration of the conditions will determine how quickly service resumes. In some cases, pickup gets pushed to the next scheduled service date. The best way to stay informed is to contact Dallas Sanitation Services directly for updates on when collection will resume.
Not all areas in Dallas have the same bulk trash schedule—some neighborhoods get weekly pickup, some monthly, and others require an appointment. If delays due to holidays or weather push your pickup back too far, or if you have items that the city won’t take (like refrigerators that require professional vacuuming), hiring a junk removal service might be your best option.
Professional junk haulers like Dallas Junk Guys offer pickup on your schedule, regardless of delays. This helps you avoid prolonged curbside clutter and potential code violations for items that aren’t eligible for city bulk pickup.
