ECO Waste Services - A Meridian Waste Company

5.3out of 10

(51 reviews)

About this business

From what I’ve gathered over the years dealing with junk removal in the Powdersville area, ECO Waste Services—now part of Meridian Waste—is one of those outfits that run a pretty solid, no-fuss operation. They show up on time, which in this business is half the battle already won. You’re not left waiting around, wondering when the crew might swing by. They’re responsive when you reach out, and that sort of ...

What customers say

“As a project manager for a large commercial and industrial general contractor I can say I’ve ordered my fair share of portable restroom, dumpsters etc. I’m confident by saying that I cannot say enough good things about my experience with ECO. The pricing is competitive and fair across the board for dumpsters, hand washing stations, facilities, washouts you name it. We have moved to only using eco in the area for all the above, as well as temp water, and holding tanks. Service is great and our Rep Bill Cummines always goes above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction and exceed expectations (even for the occasional last minute request). I’d highly recommend them and their services! I have even personally used their dumpsters on a personal home renovation based on the experience! A happy customer who’s glad to give a 5 star experience review!”
— John Sloan

“I was having so much trouble with the trash company we had with can placement and price increases. I reached out to Cole Ray after hours and he responded immediately and even helped me by sending me what to say to the current trash company. Cole was so kind, and helpful, especially since I could only communicate after normal business hours. He really understood my frustration and was so helpful. Cole is killing it, and he needs a raise! The world needs more Coles.”

“Solicited a number of bids and estimates...Justin was the only one to commit to a price based upon pictures and descriptions.

Recommend them and would definitely use them again.”

Local Junk Disposal Rules & Recycling Programs in Houston

Regular household trash in Houston is typically collected curbside once a week in carts or bags, while recyclables are collected on a separate schedule; residents should keep trash, recycling, and any bulk items in clearly separated piles so crews can identify what goes where.
Bulk trash such as furniture, mattresses, and non-hazardous household items is usually picked up on a set day for your neighborhood; items are often required to be placed at the curb no earlier than the day before collection and no later than 7:00 a.m. on pickup day.
Many Houston neighborhoods have a volume limit for bulk pickup, often around 5–8 cubic yards per collection (roughly a pile about 6 ft wide × 10–12 ft long × 3 ft high); larger piles may be tagged and require a special request, extra fees, or a private junk removal service.
Construction and demolition debris from remodeling projects—such as drywall, tile, roofing, bricks, and large amounts of lumber—is typically not accepted in regular bulk pickup and often must be taken to an approved disposal facility, placed in a rented dumpster, or removed by a private junk hauler.
Yard waste like bagged leaves, bundled branches, and grass clippings is usually collected separately from bulk junk; branches often must be cut to a certain length and bundled with string or twine so crews can handle them safely.
Hazardous materials (paint, chemicals, automotive fluids, propane tanks, certain electronics) are generally not allowed in curbside trash or bulk piles and must be taken to designated household hazardous waste facilities or special collection events.
When setting out bulk items, residents should place them at the curb in front of their property without blocking sidewalks, driveways, mailboxes, or storm drains, and avoid placing items under low power lines or tree branches so collection trucks can safely access them.

Because rules and schedules can vary by neighborhood and change over time, always confirm the latest trash, recycling, and bulk pickup guidelines on the official city or county sanitation website before placing items at the curb.

Frequently Asked Questions about Houston Junk Removal

What kinds of items do junk removal companies in Houston usually take?

Most Houston junk removal services will haul away furniture, mattresses, appliances, electronics, boxes of household clutter, yard debris, and bagged trash, along with small amounts of construction debris like wood, tile, and drywall. Very heavy materials or hazardous waste may require special handling or a different service.

Will a junk removal company in Houston donate or recycle my items?

Many Houston haulers try to donate usable furniture, clothing, and household goods to local charities and send metals, electronics, and cardboard to recycling facilities when possible. Policies vary by company, so ask your hauler how they handle donations and what percentage of items they typically divert from the landfill.

Do I have to be home when the junk removal crew arrives in Houston?

In Houston, many companies prefer that you be on-site to confirm what should go and approve final pricing, but some will offer curbside or driveway pickup if items are clearly marked and accessible. If you cannot be home, confirm payment arrangements and access instructions with the hauler in advance.

How far in advance should I schedule junk removal in Houston?

For standard loads, scheduling 2–3 days in advance is often enough in Houston, especially on weekdays. During busy times like spring cleanouts, summer moves, or post-storm cleanups, it’s wise to book at least a week ahead to get your preferred date and time.

Will Houston junk removal companies take construction and remodeling debris?

Many local haulers do accept construction debris such as lumber, cabinets, flooring, and drywall, but they may charge higher rates for heavy loads and limit materials like concrete, brick, or roofing. Always describe your project in detail so the company can confirm what they accept and provide an accurate quote.

Can junk removal services in Houston handle large property or estate cleanouts?

Yes, many Houston junk removal providers specialize in full home, estate, or office cleanouts and can bring multiple trucks and crew members. These jobs usually require an on-site estimate and may be completed over several trips, depending on the size and access to the property.

Responsible Junk Removal in Houston

Responsible junk removal in Houston means keeping usable items out of the landfill whenever possible. Before tossing everything, consider donating furniture, working appliances, and household goods so they can be reused by local families, and ask your hauler to separate metals, electronics, cardboard, and other recyclables.

Avoid illegal dumping in empty lots, bayous, canals, or along roadways, which can cause flooding, attract pests, and lead to fines. When comparing companies on Junk Removal 365, look for Houston providers that clearly explain their donation partners, recycling practices, and commitment to reuse so you can clean up your space while minimizing your impact on the environment.
