Trash & Recycling

The Town of Westlake contracts with Republic Services for our trash & recycling services.

Pick-up is every FRIDAY (except during Thanksgiving & Christmas, when it may move to Saturday).

Bulk pick-up on the 2nd and 4th Fridays of the month. 

If you require additional trash carts, there will be a charge of $5.33 per month. Additional recycling carts are free.

If you have a broken or missing cart, believe your trash was not picked up, or have questions or concerns, please contact your Public Works Assistant at 817.490.5732 or email Dianna in Public Works.
