Trash services will now start at 6am in the morning for the summer to beat the heat. This change will primarily affect customers who are on the earliest routes. Please make sure you put your trash out the night before to ensure you are not missed.

TXDOT has announced that they are adding a dedicated turn lane into Pebble Beach when heading east on US 79! They have also scheduled the extension of the continuous center turn lane all the way to Joe Smith plant farms. This will protect motorists who are turning into the golf course and The Jackson from the west and turning into Pebble Beach from the East. Thank you TXDOT! The dedicated turn lane is already under construction.
