Texas / Local rental guide

Dumpster rental
in Midland.

Inside Midland city limits, the Municipal Code reserves trash collection at homes to the City's solid waste division unless the City approves otherwise, so rent the City's own 30-yard construction container through Solid Waste. Use free alley bulky pickup for furniture and appliances, and the container for remodel debris, which the alley service will not take.

The first decision in Midland

Check the city boundary first.

There is one standard provider for a house: the City's 30-yard open-top, billed to your water account. The Code's fee table prices it by the haul — $165 for three days or $185 for a week, each with one pickup, plus tax and disposal — so a short job with one haul is the cheapest use. For furniture and appliances alone, free alley bulky pickup costs nothing.

Your local checklist

Confirm your address is inside Midland city limits, not a Midland mailing address on a county road, before relying on City containers or rules.
Order the City's 30-yard construction container from Solid Waste (432-685-7278); confirm the rental period, disposal charge and current fee, and if a private company offers a bin, ask the City whether that use is approved.
Plan the drop spot on your driveway, keep the alley clear for City trash trucks, and call Engineering Services before putting a container in a street or alley.

01 / SOURCE-CHECKED LISTING

City of Midland Solid Waste construction containers

Published sizes: 30-cubic-yard open-top construction container
Rental & weight terms: Available on request; charges are added to your City water bill or arranged through Customer Service. Rental period, included weight and extra-haul or extra-day charges are not published.
Price basis: Not posted on the City's web page; the Municipal Code's roll-off fee table lists $165 for three days (one pickup), $185 for one week (one pickup), $675 for a month with weekly pickups and $125 per additional collection, plus tax and disposal. Call Solid Waste at 432-685-7278 to confirm the current charge.

Under Municipal Code § 8-6-12, residential collection is provided by the City solid waste division unless otherwise approved, so this is the standard route for a house. Run by Solid Waste/Sanitation (401 N. Carver St., Midland, TX 79701); billing through the water account means it is aimed at City utility customers.

Keep the bin on your lot; no published City street-dumpster permit was found

We did not find a City of Midland permit, fee or time limit written specifically for a dumpster or roll-off in a street or alley. The City's Engineering Services division handles permitting for construction in the right-of-way, but its online form center lists only a franchise-utility work notice, so a container in the street is a question to put to Engineering Services (432-685-7100, or inspections@midlandtexas.gov) before delivery rather than something to assume is allowed. Midland's alleys are working lanes for the City's shared trash containers and bulky-item pickups, so do not park a roll-off where it blocks a garbage truck. The simplest course is a driveway or paved pad on your own property, with boards under the rails to protect the concrete. When you order the City's 30-yard construction container, ask Solid Waste (432-685-7278) where it can be set. Many Midland subdivisions also have deed restrictions or an HOA, so check yours for limits on containers in view.

What matters locally

Free alley pickup for bulky household items, but not limbs or building debris

City-served homes can call Solid Waste (432-685-7278) to book a bulky-item pickup at no extra charge; requests are worked in the order received. Set items such as couches, bed frames, appliances, water heaters, grills and swing sets in the alley right-of-way behind the house, not beside the shared alley dumpster, because crews will not enter private property. The regular cart and alley service does not take tree limbs or construction debris, nor tires, vehicle batteries or barrels of oil; the City treats putting banned items out as illegal dumping. Tree and yard waste goes to the Citizens Collection Station at 4100 Smith Road, north of the ClayDesta post office.

City of Midland Landfill on Garden City Highway

The City runs its own landfill on Garden City Highway southeast of town (the Landfill page gives 7901 E. Garden City Highway; the Code Enforcement page lists 7904 S. Garden City Highway), open 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays and 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturdays, phone 432-685-3431, taking card, cash or check. The page does not publish gate rates or an accepted-materials list, so call before hauling a trailer of remodel debris. If you haul your own debris in a pickup or trailer, tarp the load.

Questions about renting in Midland.

Does the City of Midland rent dumpsters to residents?

Yes. Solid Waste offers 30-cubic-yard open-top construction containers on request, with the charge added to your City water bill or arranged through Customer Service. The City does not post the price, rental length or weight limit online, so call 432-685-7278 for current rates and availability. For furniture and appliances alone, the free alley bulky-item pickup may be enough.

Can I hire a private roll-off company for my Midland house?

Only with the City's approval. Municipal Code § 8-6-12 lets the owner of a commercial property contract with a permitted private hauler, but says collection for residential premises will be provided by the City solid waste division unless otherwise approved. Permitted haulers pay $500 a year per truck and carry a City decal. For a house, start with the City's own 30-yard construction container.
