The City's own dumpster rental program is suspended, so rentals inside city limits go through private haulers on the City's permitted list; a dumpster in the public right-of-way needs City authorization; driveway placement is the simpler path
What should I know before renting a dumpster in New Braunfels?
New Braunfels has suspended its city dumpster rental program, so roll-offs inside the city limits come from private haulers that hold a City commercial solid waste hauler permit. Most loads go to Mesquite Creek Landfill on Kohlenberg Road. A container on your driveway is usually the simplest placement; one in the street or on a sidewalk needs City right-of-way authorization first.
City Dumpster Program Is Suspended
The City of New Braunfels Solid Waste and Recycling Division states that the City’s dumpster rental program is currently suspended. Temporarily, dumpster rentals inside the city limits are handled by private haulers that have permits to operate in New Braunfels.
The City publishes a current list of permitted private haulers on its Dumpster Rental page. Before you book, ask the provider whether it is on that list for work inside the city limits. Haulers that collect or transport commercial solid waste in the City need a Commercial Solid Waste Hauler Permit under City Code Chapter 110.

Dumpster Permits and Street Placement
A dumpster on your own driveway or private lot is the usual path for homeowners and small remodels. Placement in a street, sidewalk, alley or other public right-of-way is an obstruction under City rules and needs City authorization before delivery.
Permanent commercial dumpster pads and screening have a separate Building Department permit under City Code Section 110-58 (pad thickness, screening height, gate width and truck access). That rule is for permanent commercial containers, not a short residential roll-off on a driveway, but contractors building new enclosures should read it. Confirm street-placement steps with the City before you schedule a curb delivery. Sources: City Dumpster Rental page, New Braunfels Code Chapter 110, and Section 110-58 container pads and enclosures.
Where New Braunfels Debris Goes
The landfill the City points residents to is Mesquite Creek Landfill, operated by Waste Management:
- Address: 1700 Kohlenberg Rd, New Braunfels, TX 78130
- TCEQ Permit: 66C (Type I municipal solid waste), Comal County, listed active in TCEQ’s January 2026 inventory
Type I landfills may accept municipal solid waste, including household and construction debris, subject to the facility’s own rules.

The Comal County Recycling Center at 281 Resource Dr, New Braunfels, TX 78132 takes selected recyclables, not mixed roll-off loads.

Your provider will add its own list on top of this. Source: TCEQ special waste disposal.
