The City of Branson doesn't provide trash pickup
In a lot of cities, trash pickup comes with your water bill. Branson works differently. According to the City of Branson, weekly trash and solid waste removal is handled by private businesses, not the city.
So if you just moved in and nobody's picking up your trash, nothing is broken. You need to choose a hauler and start service.
How to set up trash service
- Find a hauler that serves your address. Lakeland covers Branson, Hollister, Forsyth, Ridgedale, Rockaway Beach, Kirbyville, Merriam Woods, and more. See our service area.
- Check the price and pickup day. Our prices are posted. Enter your ZIP on the pricing page to see your monthly rate and pickup day.
- Sign up. Use our start service form or call (417) 559-2347. We'll confirm your address and start date.
- Set the cart out on your day. See the pickup schedule and what goes in the cart.
Taney County Transfer Station basics
For things that don't fit in a weekly cart, the City of Branson points residents to the Taney County Transfer Station, about 4 miles north of Branson. The transfer station is where trash is consolidated before it goes to the landfill, and it's an option if you want to haul a load yourself.
- Call ahead. The City of Branson lists 417-336-6589 for transfer station questions. Confirm hours, fees, and what's accepted before you load the truck.
- Bring ID with your address. The station has required proof of county residency before.
- No lithium batteries. Taney County notes they aren't accepted at its transfer station or recycle center.
- Big project? A dumpster rental saves you the trips.
The City of Branson also runs a seasonal cleanup for some large items from Branson residents. Check the city's trash page for current dates and rules.
