Hazardous waste
The City of Laredo Environmental Department runs a drop-off at the landfill for residential household hazardous waste, including batteries, computers and paints. Call 3-1-1 with questions about specific items. Residential used motor oil only goes free at the landfill, Fire Station #9 (11700 Mines Rd.) and Public Works (5512 Daugherty Ave.).
Holiday closures
Hours can change on holidays, and the landfill may close to the public on rainy days or in bad weather. Call (956) 796-1098 ahead of time.

Other notes
- Payment is by credit card, check or cash.
- Appliances and furniture: residents with ID and a utility bill pay $2.00 on weekdays for loads under 2,000 lbs, and nothing on Saturdays.
- Free mulch is available at the landfill.
- Commercial customers bringing material from outside Laredo, FDA-rejected, expired or spoiled goods, or large quantities of unwanted product must fill out a special waste form.
- Source conflict: an older answer on the city FAQ page still lists the previous $46.50 per ton rates. The city rates page and the landfill tips page show $51.50 (and $86.50 and $221.50) as of October 1, 2025. This page uses the newer rates.
