Important Update Regarding Hurricane Beryl Debris Removal

Best Trash extends sympathy for all of those affected by the storm. We understand that this is a catastrophic event and that it will take some time for the County to clean up the area. Please note that storm debris is not part of the normal, heavy trash collection. Our main focus will be to collect household trash. Please ensure that the storm debris is separate from your regular trash to avoid any confusion.

Regular trash and recycling will be serviced as normal going forward.

Fort Bend County Road & Bridge is coordinating the collection and removal of disaster debris within Fort Bend County. Fort Bend County Road & Bridge will begin debris collection and removal beginning early next week. In order to recycle as many materials as possible, residents are asked to separate disaster debris into the following piles:

  • Construction and Demolition Materials
  • Electronic Waste
  • Household Hazardous Waste
  • White Goods
  • Vegetative materials (trees, limbs, brush, leaves, etc.)

DO NOT MIX OR PLACE NORMAL HOUSEHOLD TRASH WITH STORM DEBRIS CURBSIDE

Normal Household Trash – normal household waste, recyclables and bagged debris of any kind will not be collected with your storm debris. Please continue to follow your normal garbage removal schedule.

Please note that this operation is ONLY for disaster debris. Please do not attempt to place garbage or other household refuse with the disaster debris, as it will not be accepted, and will delay your storm debris collections. Regular trash removal services in the community will continue as scheduled.

Please place the debris piles at the curb in the public right-of-way (not in ditches) in front of your home or business as soon as possible. Please do not block any public utility such as fire hydrants, water valves, road signs, etc. If properly separated, it will be picked up by crews.
