Yard Debris Removal in Allen, TX

Cowboy Site Services removes brush, limbs, bagged leaves and storm debris in Allen, loose or bundled, with no count or size limits. We're about 15 minutes from McKinney and price yard debris by trailer space. A small pile can fit our Minimum Pickup, from $189.

Weekly bundles, monthly brush, and the gap between

Allen runs two separate brush services. Small tied bundles and paper bags go out on trash day each week. Loose limbs get a once-a-month Wednesday pickup that has to be booked ahead.

Both work fine for routine trimming. The trouble starts when a Saturday of pruning doubles the weekly count. Or the loose pile grows past what the monthly crew will load.

That's when a yard debris removal service earns its keep. We take everything in one visit, without cutting, tying or waiting for a slot.

  • Loose limbs of any length
  • Leaves in paper or plastic bags
  • Shrub and hedge trimmings
  • Small stumps already pulled from the ground

After a storm drops limbs in Allen

Allen is clear that storm cleanup on private property belongs to the property owner. The city's severe weather page says that applies to homeowners, businesses and HOAs alike.

Limbs already on the ground are ordinary trailer work for us. A tree that still has to be cut down, or a big clearing job, needs rented or subcontracted equipment. Those are scheduled separately, never same-day.

Our post on storm debris cleanup in Collin County has more on getting ready before the crews come through.

Leaves in the wrong bags

Allen only collects leaves and clippings in biodegradable paper lawn bags. Plastic bags sit at the curb, no matter how neatly they're tied.

That catches a lot of people every fall. If your leaves are already in plastic, we'll load them as they are, and you don't have to rebag a thing.

Pulled annuals, spent garden vines and cut-back ornamental grasses can go in the same load. Bagged or loose, it all rides out together.

Mixed piles the yard crew will skip

Landscaping projects rarely produce just branches. There's sod from a bed that got widened, a few bags of rock, broken edging and maybe an old fence picket or two.

Allen's yard waste and bulk programs both leave those materials out. We can take them in the same load as the brush, with heavy dirt or rock quoted after we see photos. Our Allen service area page covers everything else we haul in town.

Hauling it to the grinder yourself

Allen residents can take yard waste to a wood grinding facility up to twice a month. You'll need a current City of Allen water bill and a matching Texas driver's license, as the city's do-it-yourself disposal page explains.

That works if you have a pickup and an afternoon free. If not, our trailer makes the trip instead. Any load you take there also has to be tarped or tied down.

Allen's yard waste page sets a weekly cap, a bundle size and a weight limit, plus a monthly ceiling on loose brush. Tree limbs are also off the list for regular bulk day.

Anything past those lines is yours to deal with, or a paid special pickup. We fill that gap with one trip and a firm price confirmed before loading. The full set of city rules is in our Allen bulk and brush guide.

Yard Debris Removal in Allen: questions

My tree trimmer left the limbs behind. Will you take them?

Yes, we'll haul them. Allen expects a hired trimmer to remove their own debris, so it's worth asking them first. If that doesn't work out, send photos and we'll quote the pile.

Do I need to call ahead for Allen's Wednesday brush pickup if you're hauling it?

No. That booking is only for the city's monthly crew. When we haul it, you just pick a time with us.

Can you take more than three cubic yards in one visit?

Yes. We load until the pile is gone, and a big one may fill a Half or Full Trailer Load. We quote the size from your photos first.

More answers on pricing, scheduling and what we take are in our full FAQ.
