Solid Waste Facilities Update

Construction of the new City of Waco Landfill and the City of Waco Transfer Station is complete. The new facilities will begin accepting waste from City of Waco Solid Waste trucks beginning October 1. The facilities are expected to open to the public in the Spring of 2026. The existing landfill on Hannah Hill Rd. will remain open until the new facilities are ready to begin accepting waste from the general public.

Our team is dedicated to maintaining essential infrastructure that supports daily life, public health, safety and overall community well-being. We ensure that the City is functional, clean, safe and an enjoyable place to live. 

The department includes Public Works Maintenance, Streets, Solid Waste and Utilities. Through these services, we support public service, prioritize safety, look toward the future and show pride in our community.
