Who collects trash in Albany, and does that limit roll-offs?
On December 15, 2022, the Albany City Council voted to keep Republic Services for a five-year solid waste contract after reviewing three bids. The bid covered carts, small dumpsters, twice-yearly bulk cleanups and roll-offs for city projects. We found no clause reserving private roll-offs to Republic.
The regional plan also lists Republic for Moran. We confirm in-town addresses on the call before dispatch. Sources: The Albany News, Dec 2022; WCTCOG plan Table III.H.I.
Where does Shackelford County debris go?
The regional plan lists no landfill, transfer station or citizen collection station in Shackelford County, and the TCEQ list shows no active municipal landfill there. Roll-off loads are hauled out of the county to a permitted landfill and weighed there, and the ticket comes with your invoice.
That makes a roll-off the simplest way to clear a ranch house or barn: one box, one haul, one weight ticket. How weight is billed.
What should you expect from older Albany homes and recent storms?
Shackelford County peaked at 6,695 people in 1930 during the oil boom, so many homes have plaster, heavy flooring and stacked roof layers. Wind is the other factor: on April 1, 2024, an 88 mph gust three miles east-northeast of Albany blew the roof off a house.
Heavy old materials call for sizing by weight; see the remodeling dumpster guide. Sources: Shackelford County history; NWS San Angelo top 2024 events.
Shackelford County dumpster questions
Which size fits a plaster-wall remodel in Albany?
Plaster and lath are heavy. Two or three rooms usually fit a 20-yard dumpster with 3 tons included; a whole-house gut often needs the 30-yard with 4 tons.
Can you deliver near Fort Griffin?
Ranch and rural addresses around Fort Griffin are in range. Give us the road, the gate and a landmark when you book.
Do I need to be at the ranch for pickup?
You don't need to be there if the dumpster is reachable and gates are open. A locked gate on pickup day means a $125 dry-run fee.
Can old barbed wire and T-posts go in?
Wire and steel posts can go in a roll-off. Roll wire tight and lay posts flat so the load stays level with the rim.
Does hail hit southwest Shackelford County?
Golf ball-size hail fell in southwestern Shackelford County on May 18, 2017, during a severe outbreak across the region. Hail roofs are heavy; a typical one-layer roof fits a 20-yard dumpster with 3 tons included.
What fits in a 30-yard for a ranch barn tear-down?
A 30-yard dumpster holds about 12 pickup loads and includes 4 tons, enough for most wood-frame barns with tin roofing. Concrete floors and footings go in a separate 10 or 15-yard, filled halfway.
