Exclusive MarketConfirmed by contract

Lake Jackson, Texas

Brazoria County · City of Lake Jackson Sanitation Department (city-operated); GFL Environmental provides roll-offs under contract

An operator reports that Lake Jackson allows only the city’s own containers or its contracted hauler (GFL Environmental) for temporary/overflow dumpster needs. The operator was ordered to remove a 10-day residential rental within about three days — before the homeowner had even used it. The ordinance and contract still need verification.

RestrictedConfirmed by ordinance

Manvel, Texas

Brazoria County · Waste Connections, Inc. (city residential/recycling contractor); roll-off haulers must register with the city

Manvel changed its approach: outside roll-off companies may operate, but they must register with the city, pay registration/franchise fees, follow franchise rules, and report twice a year (Chapter 56). Because haulers can register rather than one company holding exclusive rights, Manvel is rated Restricted. An operator confirms the city now charges a fee or percentage to place dumpsters in the city.
