COA Permitted Waste Haulers

What type of Austin trash removal companies are on the list? Some companies are dumpster rental pros, others are junk haulers, and others are construction companies who acquired a permit to legally haul debris from their job sites.

First things first: the City of Austin can fine you up to $2,000 and put you in jail for up to a year for hiring an un-licensed waste hauler. Who is defined as a hauler? Anyone who hauls trash from your property, beside you the property owner, is considered a hauler. That means, if your contractor hauls trash from your job site, the contractor is acting as a illegal garbage hauler.

Law enforcement does random checks and often hang out by the Austin landfills, Austin dump, and recycling centers, so it is easy to get caught. In other words, if the person you’re hiring to dispose of your garbage is not on this official private waste hauler, you are putting yourself in danger.
