City of Celina Announces 2026 Special Trash Collection Guidelines

CELINA — The City of Celina has released details for its 2026 Special Trash Collection, outlining strict regulations on acceptable items, pickup limits, and scheduling.

City officials say the collection is limited to general household discards from city residences only. Due to rising landfill costs, restrictions, and the use of packer trucks, regulations will be strictly enforced.

Each residence is limited to a maximum of 60 cubic feet of trash — the equivalent of what can fit into the hopper of a collection truck at one time.

Prohibited Items

The following items will not be collected:

• Couches

• Mattresses

• Appliances, including refrigerators, stoves and water heaters

• Sinks and stools

• Tires and batteries

• Tree limbs, brush, leaves and yard waste

• Railroad ties

• Unboxed or unbundled building materials

• Concrete, brick and stone debris

• Metal fencing

• Motor blocks, transmissions and auto body parts

• Pressure containers

• Liquid waste and hazardous materials, including paint and motor oil

Paint cans must be empty or the paint completely dried out. Special disposal tags for certain items can be purchased at the Celina Utilities Office.
