Dumpster rental
in Rowlett.

For a roll-off at a house inside Rowlett city limits, call Republic Services. The City lists it as the only permitted temporary waste hauler and says it holds exclusive rights. For a smaller job, compare that quote with your two free Hinton Landfill trips or a paid Republic special bulk pickup.

The first decision in Rowlett

Check the city boundary first.

With one lawful provider, the real choice is between disposal methods. A Republic roll-off costs whatever Republic quotes, and none of its Rowlett prices, rental days or tonnage limits are published. Hauling it yourself to the Hinton Landfill on Elm Grove Road is free twice a year with a City pass and $66 a ton for C&D after that ($50 minimum). Weekly bulk pickup tops out at 2 cubic yards and leaves out contractor debris.

Your local checklist

Confirm your address is inside Rowlett city limits, not Garland, Sachse, Wylie or Rockwall, before relying on the City's Republic arrangement.
Call Republic at 972-422-2341 for a written roll-off quote that states the size, rental days, included tons and any overweight or extra-day charges.
Ask the City (972-412-6100) and your HOA before putting a container anywhere other than your driveway, including the street or the alley.

01 / SOURCE-CHECKED LISTING

Republic Services, the City of Rowlett's solid waste contractor

Published sizes: Republic's residential dumpster page lists 10-yard (about 4 pickup loads), 15-yard, 20-yard, 30-yard and 40-yard (about 16 pickup loads) roll-offs. Which of these the Rowlett operation stocks is not stated.
Rental & weight terms: Rental days, included weight, overweight charges and extra-day fees are not published for Rowlett; request a written quote.
Price basis: Not published by the City or Republic for Rowlett; request a written quote.

The City's Trash & Recycle Collection page says, under 'Permitted Temporary Waste Haulers', that Republic Services has exclusive rights. Republic has collected Rowlett's residential waste since fall 2024. Republic's Rowlett page offers dumpsters for home projects, renovations and cleanouts but gives no local yard address, sizes or prices. The City lists Republic's customer line as 972-422-2341, and City Utility Customer Service (972-412-6105) can help if Republic does not respond within 24 hours.

No City dumpster or right-of-way permit found; plan on the driveway

We did not find a City of Rowlett page or permit covering a roll-off placed in the street or right-of-way. That means we found no rule, not that no permit is needed. Before asking Republic to set a box at the curb or in the alley, call the City at 972-412-6100. Because Republic is the City's exclusive temporary-container hauler, it should also know how the City handles placement. The safest choice on a typical Rowlett lot is the driveway. On alley-loaded homes, confirm that the truck can reach the spot from the street or the alley without blocking a neighbor's garage. The City's bulk rules already ask residents not to block hydrants, water meters, alleys, sidewalks, driveways or roads, and the same courtesy applies to a container. Check your HOA rules on visible containers and how long one may stay.

What matters locally

Two free debris trips a year to Hinton Landfill, on Elm Grove Road

The C.M. Hinton Landfill is run by the City of Garland but sits at 3175 Elm Grove Road in Rowlett. Rowlett households can get a Landfill Pass from the City, issued one per household per calendar year, and use it for two free debris loads. Pick it up at Utility Billing, 6602 Dalrock Road, with a driver's license and a current water bill, and bring both again at the gate. Apartment residents are not eligible because the City does not bill them directly. Once the pass is used up, Garland's current rate sheet charges $66 a ton for construction and bulky waste in auto-unload vehicles, $68 a ton for hand-unloaded loads, a $0.94-per-ton environmental fee and a $50 minimum per load. It adds $50 for an untarped load. The landfill is open weekdays 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. for the public and Saturdays 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. The pass sheet bars tires, liquids, hazardous waste, Freon appliances and friable asbestos.

Bulk pickup takes 2 cubic yards a week, and no contractor debris

Republic collects up to 2 cubic yards of brush and bulk on your regular trash day. The pile must be stacked at the front of the house, between the curb and the sidewalk, by 7 a.m. Alley pickup is not offered, even though many Rowlett homes have alley-side carts. Single items should weigh 50 pounds or less. Dirt, rock, concrete, tires, batteries, car parts, paint and other liquids or chemicals are not taken. The City says waste from contractors, including construction debris and tree-service waste, is the contractor's responsibility. Extra volume is billed per cubic yard; the City's pages show both $12.60 and $12.00, so confirm the rate when you call Republic at 972-422-2341 to arrange a special pickup.
