We are one of the largest independently-owned solid waste collection, processing and disposal companies in the nation, and the state’s first totally integrated facility of its kind.
Located on more than 2,000 acres of land, Texas Landfill Management (TLM)’s southeast Travis County facility was opened on Feb. 1, 1991. The facility incorporates solid waste disposal, materials processing, compost production, and recycling operations, processing on average between 3,000 and 4,000 tons of solid waste per day.

Our landfill, recognized nationally as one of the best in America, combines both natural and engineered barriers to meet the highest environmental protection standards.
By utilizing the area’s natural shale and clay, Essential Waste Services LLC has developed a performance-based liner system that includes a leachate collection system and thick, re-compacted clay sidewall liners.
This advanced liner system fully complies with the current performance-based landfill liner requirements set by both the EPA and the TCEQ.
At Essential Waste Services LLC, our goal is to accept as many materials as possible for safe and responsible disposal. However, certain items are prohibited from landfill or recycling due to safety and environmental regulations. These include hazardous waste, paint, non-compostable bulk liquids, and radioactive materials.
If you’re unsure how to properly dispose of a specific item, use our waste sorting tools to find out whether it belongs in the trash, recycling, or compost. We’re committed to helping you manage waste the right way while protecting the environment in the Central Texas area.
In addition to our well-regarded landfill facility in Travis County, Essential Waste Services LLC operates transfer stations at multiple locations across the Central Texas area.
These transfer stations promote responsible waste management by consolidating materials from multiple collection trucks into a single high-capacity vehicle. This larger truck then transports the waste to our main facility, reducing transportation costs and environmental impact.
Transfer stations help municipalities efficiently manage waste without the complexities and costs of building a landfill. They also improve overall service by reducing the number of trucks on the road while enabling the collection of larger volumes of waste.
Efficient curbside collection with regular pickups to keep your home or business clean and waste-free.
Specialized waste management solutions for factories and large facilities, ensuring safe and compliant disposal.
Comprehensive recycling options that help you reduce waste and contribute to a greener environment.
Essential Waste Services LLC offers flexible, reliable waste pickup across Central Texas—ensuring clean, efficient, and eco-friendly solutions for homes, businesses, and communities every day.
Keeping your community clean and green, one pickup at a time for a healthier tomorrow for a clean earth & clear future.
