Odessa landfill & dump sites

Odessa is different from most Texas cities on this list: the landfill serving it is privately operated by Republic Services rather than run by the city, which means there's no free resident allowance and no published per-ton rate. The city handles your curbside cart service; the landfill handles everything you haul yourself. Here's where it is, when it's open, and exactly who to call for a price before you load up.

City of Odessa services

Curbside cart service — $23.99/month

City Service

City residential trash service is $23.99 a month and includes one 96-gallon rollout cart, collected twice a week (Mondays and Thursdays, starting 7:00 a.m.). Additional carts are $8.28/month each — often cheaper than repeated landfill runs if you're consistently over capacity. Call (432) 368-3510 with service questions.

Rollout cart transition still underway

City Service

Odessa is phasing neighbourhoods onto rollout carts. The next transition area — west of Faudree Rd to Billy Hext Rd — is scheduled for March through October 2026. If your street changes over, your collection setup may change with it.

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.
