How to Remove Yard Waste & Brush in San Antonio, TX
After a storm or a major landscaping project, branches, brush, and debris pile up fast. San Antonio offers weekly yard-waste collection, but storm-scale piles and bulky stumps need a different plan. Here's how to clear yard waste efficiently.
Step-by-Step Guide
- 1
Separate organic from non-organic
Put leaves and grass clippings in compost bags. Set aside branches, brush, and stumps separately. Remove any treated lumber, fencing, or metal from the pile.
- 2
Check weekly curbside limits
San Antonio Solid Waste picks up bagged yard waste on your regular collection day, but there are limits on volume and branch length.
- 3
Bundle oversized branches
Branches over the city's length limit should be cut and bundled, or hauled in a truck. Stumps and root balls usually won't fit curbside.
- 4
Book a bulk yard-waste haul
For big piles, storm debris, or stumps, text photos to 210-405-5761. Razorbill loads it all, hauls it, and takes organic waste to a green-waste facility.
