Saginaw, Texas, bulky brush, garbage and recycling reminders

Bulky Brush Pick-up Coming in April: Progressive Waste Solutions picks up bulky brush and tree limbs twice a year, on the second week of April and October. The next pick-up will begin the week of April 8, 2013. Brush must be out by the curb by 7:00 a.m. on Monday, April 8. It takes several days for the trucks to canvass the entire city. Brush and limbs bundled and not longer than four (4) feet in length or over 50 pounds will be picked up with regular garbage service. For more information, you can contact Progressive Waste Solutions at 817-222-2221 or visit the company web site at www.progressivewaste.com.

Garbage and Recycling: In North Texas, the wind occasionally blows at an accelerated rate. On your scheduled pick-up date, please be sure to secure and contain your trash/recycling as to not litter your neighborhood with blowing trash. Help us keep Saginaw clean and litter free.
