Storm Debris Collection Notice for WCID 89 Residents

Provided by Best Trash – Your Residential Waste Service Provider

In the event of a disaster such as a hurricane or flood, your safety is our top priority. Best Trash, under contract with Harris County WCID 89, is committed to keeping our community clean and safe.

🛑 Immediate Post-Storm Collection Priorities:

  • First Priority: Collection of household waste (rotting garbage) to reduce health hazards, especially during power outages.
  • Please be patient during the first week post-disaster, as volume will be significantly higher.

🚛 How to Sort Your Waste for Efficient Pickup:

Help us serve you faster by separating materials at the curb:

  1. Household Garbage:

    • Use white bags for standard household trash.
  1. Recyclables:

    • Place in your usual recycling bins.
  1. Grass Clippings & Yard Waste:

    • Use clear plastic bags or brown paper lawn bags.
  1. Storm Debris:

    • Includes downed trees, large branches, fencing, roofing, flood-damaged household materials, or construction debris.
    • Neatly stack in separate piles from your normal waste.

🟡 Important: Do not block sidewalks, roadways, traffic signs, drains, or stormwater infrastructure.

⚠️ A Few Key Reminders:

  • Storm debris is not included in Best Trash’s regular residential collection contract with WCID 89.
  • Debris from home repairs, construction, or remodeling (such as drywall or flooring) is not considered regular trash and will not be picked up under our standard service.
