Blackjack Disposal in Texas — Waste Franchise & Dumpster Restriction Tracker

These 2 Texas cities are tracked as having Blackjack Disposal as the waste contractor or exclusive franchise holder, according to the sources on each city page. For each city we track whether temporary construction roll-off dumpsters appear to be included, the franchise fee, the relevant ordinance, and the source documents. This is not a claim that Blackjack Disposal has acted unlawfully; always verify current requirements with the city.

Edgewood, Texas

Van Zandt County · BlackJack Disposal (city residential/commercial sanitation contractor)

The City of Edgewood (Van Zandt County) contracts with BlackJack Disposal for residential and commercial sanitation, according to the city’s Utilities page. An operator reports that after delivering a temporary construction roll-off to a private property in downtown Edgewood in June 2026, a BlackJack Disposal employee demanded the customer remove it within 24 hours or face towing and a fine. Whether construction roll-offs are legally exclusive still needs ordinance verification. BlackJack is the same franchise holder involved in Greenville.

Greenville, Texas

Hunt County · Blackjack Disposal (per the city’s 2023 solid waste contract)

According to the City of Greenville’s 2023 solid waste contract with Blackjack Disposal, the contractor holds exclusive rights — reportedly including construction and demolition debris from construction and remodeling. A field report submitted to this database alleges that an independent dumpster company was cited, warned it could be sued for $20,000, and had its dumpster towed from private property and impounded for recovery fees. The contract confirms the exclusive arrangement; the specific enforcement allegations still need independent verification. In a notable enforcement action, the city’s exclusive franchise hauler (BlackJack Disposal) filed a $6,066 small-claims lawsuit in January 2025 against an independent operator, alleging nine violations of Greenville’s franchise ordinance (Hunt County JP Ct. No. 12SC25B0003; outcome pending verification).
