For household trash, Bexar County residents can use two commercial landfills that charge by weight: Republic's Tessman Road Landfill on I-10 East and WM's Covel Gardens Landfill on the southwest side. City of San Antonio residents can also take bulky items, brush and some construction debris free to four Bulky Waste Collection Centers, with a CPS Energy bill and photo ID.
Below that, every permitted disposal site in the county from TCEQ records: 2 landfills, 1 transfer station, 3 citizens' collection stations, 32 recycling sites and 10 compost sites. Not all of them take waste from the public, so call ahead.
The city centers don't take household trash, and they limit each visit to 4 cubic yards of bulky waste and 1 of construction debris. Call either landfill for a current per-ton rate. More on our San Antonio page.
