Kerrville landfill: hours, fees & free vouchers

Fair warning: Kerrville has the most expensive landfill gate rate we've found anywhere in Texas — $99.93 a ton, more than double what Denton or Dallas charge. Even a small load hits a $28.57 minimum. But there's a catch that works in your favour: if you have a City trash account, you get two completely free trips a year, and most people never claim them. Here's how to get your vouchers, plus the $30 mistake to avoid at the gate.

Two free landfill vouchers a year

City Service

This is the single most valuable thing to know about disposal in Kerrville. Residents with an active City trash account can request one or two vouchers from City Hall, each good for a free trip to the landfill. Given the $99.93/ton rate and $28.57 minimum, each voucher is worth real money — and they reset every calendar year, so unused ones are simply wasted.

Common questions

Does it cost anything to dump at a landfill?
Usually yes. Most Texas landfills charge by weight (a per-ton gate rate) or by the load, and many cities give residents a discount or a set number of free drop-offs if you can show a current utility bill. Small transfer and collection stations sometimes take household trash for free. Exact fees are listed per facility above.
What's the difference between a landfill and a dump?
In everyday use people say "the dump," but a modern landfill is an engineered, permitted site with liners and monitoring. A transfer station is a smaller site where waste is collected and hauled to a landfill. Both take household junk; a transfer or collection station is often closer and quicker for small loads.
What's the cheapest way to get rid of junk for free?
Check whether your city offers free bulk-trash pickup on a set week, use county household-hazardous-waste and cleanup events, and give away usable items. For a landfill drop-off, bring proof of residency to get resident rates. If it's more than you can move yourself, a junk-removal quote is often cheaper than multiple trips plus gate fees.
How do I get rid of large or heavy items?
Bulky items — furniture, appliances, mattresses, construction debris — either go to the landfill (often for an extra per-item fee) or get hauled by a junk-removal service. If you'd rather not rent a truck and pay gate fees, get a quick quote and compare.
