What Cypress Meadow Residents Need to Know About Heavy Trash and Yard Waste Pick-Up
For Cypress Meadow residents, taking out the trash isn’t just a weekly routine—it’s an opportunity to clean house efficiently, thanks to Texas Pride Disposal’s generous heavy trash pick-up service. With collection days set for Mondays and Thursdays, neighbors in the community benefit from one of the most frequent and accommodating schedules in West Houston.
Each scheduled service day includes regular household waste and the chance to set out two large or bulky items for heavy trash collection—no need to wait once a month or rent a dumpster for major cleanouts.
What Qualifies as Heavy Trash?
Heavy trash includes items not typically generated on a regular basis. These can be:
- Furniture such as couches, mattresses, box springs, dressers, tables, and desks
- Large appliances including washers, dryers, dishwashers, and hot water heaters
- Construction-type materials like fencing, decking, and siding (please remove nails, cut items to 4 feet or less, tie and bundle them under 50 pounds—limit 8 bundles per service day)
- Broken-down trampolines (metal components can be placed with recycling if possible)
- Basketball goals (must be disassembled into 4-foot sections or less with no concrete in the base)
- Carpeting or flooring (must be cut into 4-foot lengths or shorter, bundled under 50 pounds—limit 8 bundles per day)
If it’s bulky, broken down, and within size and weight limits, it likely qualifies.

Yard Waste Guidelines
Yard maintenance projects come with their own disposal rules:
- Grass clippings must be placed in bags or cans weighing less than 50 pounds. Each home is limited to eight bags per service day.
- Branches can be placed in clear, individual piles no larger than 3’ x 3’ x 3’, or bundled. Each branch should be no more than 6 inches in diameter and bundles must remain under 50 pounds. Limit: eight bundles per service day.
- Exceeding the limits (more than eight bags or bundles) classifies the extra material as a pay pile, which may incur additional charges.
Reminders for Smooth Pick-Up
- Be sure your heavy items and yard waste are curbside by 7:00 a.m. on collection days.
- When preparing fencing, flooring, or wood debris, always remove nails for safety and keep bundles manageable.
- Keep concrete out of basketball goal bases and poles—concrete can damage the trucks and will not be collected.
