Junk Removal & Light Demolition in Collin County, TX

Collin County is home ground. The trailer is based in McKinney, and every Collin County town on this page is inside our regular run.

Cowboy Site Services provides junk removal, cleanouts and light demolition across Collin County, TX, from our base in McKinney. Haul-away loads are priced by trailer space starting at $189, with a firm quote on site before loading. Demolition is quoted per job after we see it.

Each city here sets its own bulk-pickup rules and permit requirements, so the rules for what the city will haul — and what you need before tearing something out — change at the city limit. The sections below link to each town and carry that town's rules with the official source for each.

Service pages by town

Collin County, TX. Every town listed is inside our regular run from McKinney.

What do we do across Collin County?

We haul furniture, appliances, mattresses, yard debris and remodel leftovers. Our cleanout services handle garages, estates, rentals and storage units, room by room or the whole house.

We also do light demolition: sheds, decks, fences, pergolas and interior tear-outs. Nothing structural, and nothing that needs an engineer or heavy machinery.

We're Veteran-owned and insured, and you deal with the owners, not a call center. Each town page shows which services are offered there.

Which Collin County town page should you use?

Start with the town on your address. The biggest ones are Plano, McKinney, Frisco and Allen, and the grid below lists every town we cover.

Frisco, Celina, Prosper, Plano, Sachse and Wylie cross a county line, and we serve the whole town either way. Each town page carries that city's own bulk-pickup and permit rules with official sources.

Farther north, our Grayson County page covers Sherman, Denison and the US-75 towns.

Where does household hazardous waste go in Collin County?

We don't take wet paint, chemicals or motor oil, so those go through your city's program. TCEQ's HHW contacts list sorts Collin County programs by city, including Allen, Frisco, McKinney, Melissa, Farmersville, Lucas, Parker and Prosper.

Frisco residents can drop off household chemicals at the Environmental Collection Center at 6616 Walnut Street, Tuesday through Saturday. McKinney and Allen run home pickup programs, and Prosper offers one free door pickup per year.

Our household hazardous waste guide walks through each city's program in more detail.

Where can you take a load yourself?

NTMWD's 121 Regional Disposal Facility is a landfill on Sam Rayburn Hwy in Melissa. NTMWD says residents of Allen, Frisco, McKinney, Plano and Richardson with a utility bill showing solid-waste service can drop off certain waste twice a month at its convenience centers.

NTMWD's Custer Road Transfer Station in Plano takes municipal solid waste, used motor oil and oil filters. Both are listed on NTMWD's solid waste facilities page.

If loading a truck and paying by the ton doesn't appeal, we'll do the lifting and the hauling. For curbside rules, see the Collin County bulk pickup guide.
