San Marcos Residents Receive Additional Brush and Flood Debris Dropoff

THIS IS FOR CITY OF SAN MARCOS RESIDENTS ONLY – THIS IS NOT FOR ETJ RESIDENTS (ETJ is the acronym for Extra Territorial Jurisdiction and is the legal ability to exercise authority of the nearest town / city’s form of government.)

 

The City of San Marcos will host its monthly brush drop-off, and an extra community cleanup, on Saturday, June 11 from 8 a.m.-1 p.m. at 750 River Road for residential garbage and recycling service customers.

 

In addition to brush waste, the City will accept bulk junk and furniture, recyclables and hazardous waste as part of the community cleanup.

 

“We are scheduling an extra community cleanup for the year to give people who still have flood debris an opportunity to dispose of it free of charge,” said Community Inititaves Manager Amy Kirwin. “While the event is to help flood victims, the community cleanup is open to all residents. People can make as many trips as they need to remove  bulk material  from their property.”

 

The community cleanup site can be reached by taking the San Marcos Animal Shelter entrance at 750 River Road and following the signs.

 

Drop-Off Location, 750 River Road, San Marcos.

People wishing to drop off brush and other “green waste,” as well as recyclables, bulk junk and hazardous waste, must provide a copy of a City utility bill and unload their own material at the site.

 

Green waste that will be accepted includes tree/brush trimmings, leaves and grass clippings. Brush containing barbed wire or other metals will not be accepted.

 

The service is open only to residential solid waste customers in San Marcos. Residents are invited to load and take ground up mulch at the site as available.

 

The next community cleanups will be in the fall, on Sept. 10 and Oct. 8.
