South Residential Drop-Off Center
The City of Houston’s South drop-off, at 5100 Sunbeam, for bulky items, tree waste, tires and recycling.
The South Residential Drop-Off Center is at 5100 Sunbeam, ZIP 77033, and the city’s facility map calls it the Sunbeam Residential Drop-Off Center. Its hours are Tuesday to Saturday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.; it is closed Sunday, Monday and city holidays. It is a place for large items, not everyday trash.
Serves: Houston trash pickup and drop-off rules.
What this center takes and what it does not
Sunbeam takes furniture (two large items), mattresses, appliances, refrigerators carrying a refrigerant-removal tag, junk, tree waste and recyclables, along with 5 quarts of motor oil. Passenger tires are limited to five a visit and 10 a month. It does not take household garbage, which goes in the weekly city cart, or TVs, paint, chemicals, dirt and concrete.
About this site
The city lists the same site under two names: South in its drop-off list and Sunbeam, after the street, on its facility map. Extra bags of household garbage need the city’s Tags for Bags stickers and go out with the cart, not to Sunbeam.
Rules at every Houston drop-off center
Houston Public Works’ Solid Waste Management Division sets one list of rules for its six drop-off centers, covering residency, ID, visits and vehicles. It is on the Houston Solid Waste Management listing.
