The Town of Westlake contracts with Republic Services for our trash and recycling services. Place all trash and recyclable items out by 7 a.m. for pickup service days. Please ensure the trash receptacles and the recycle cart are at least two feet away from obstacles such as mailboxes, cars, fences, gas meters, and drainage ditches. To report a missed trash pickup on your street, call or text Utility Billing at 817.490.5732. 

**TRASH PICKUP DAY WILL MOVE TO THURSDAY STARTING JANUARY 8, 2026**

Pick-up is every THURSDAY. Pickup begins at 7:00 am and can go as late as 7:00 pm.

Bulk/Brush pick-up on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of the month. See next section for what kind of items can be set out for bulk pickup. 

Please have your contractors & landscapers haul away yard waste. 

Basic trash services consist of one trash & one recycling cart and cost $15.41 per month. All carts are 96-gallon carts. 

If you require additional trash carts, there will be a charge of $5.33 per month. Additional recycling carts are free.
