Hauling in Amarillo
Amarillo is where we are based and where most of our work happens. It is the county seat of Potter County, with a good share of the city extending south into Randall County, and it anchors a metro of roughly 274,000 people across the Panhandle.
That mix of housing is what makes the work here varied. There are mid-century ranch homes on the north and central sides that have been in families for decades and are now getting gutted or emptied. There are the older, character-heavy houses around Bivins and the San Jacinto neighborhood near the Route 66 Sixth Street District. And there is steady new construction out southwest through The Colonies, Traditions, and the Greenways, which generates a different kind of debris entirely.
A roof tear-off in Westover and an estate clean out in Bivins are not the same job. We would rather talk through which one you actually have than sell you a container off a chart.
The city dumpster problem
Here is the thing that sends most Amarillo homeowners looking for a container in the first place.
The City of Amarillo provides alley dumpsters for household waste and general refuse. They are not for construction and remodeling debris, and that restriction is enforced. So the second your project produces drywall, lumber, shingles, cabinets, flooring, or concrete, the alley is not an option.
That leaves two choices. Haul it yourself to the landfill, or have somebody bring a container.
The landfill route is real and sometimes correct. The City of Amarillo landfill sits at 16250 Bezner Dr, open Monday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with the last load accepted at the scale house around 4:30. If you have one pickup load and an afternoon free, go do that.
What tips people toward a container is the second and third trip, and the wind. The landfill closes early on high-wind days, which in the Panhandle is not an occasional thing. A container in your driveway does not shut down because it is gusting forty.
What we do here
- Roll off rentals. Container dropped at your place, filled on your schedule, hauled when you are done. Remodels, roof tear-offs, garage projects, construction debris.
- Eviction haul offs. Fast, discreet clearing of rental units so you can list them again.
- Clean outs. Estates, foreclosures, storage units, garages, and hoarding situations, where we bring the labor and you do not lift anything.
Neighborhoods and areas we cover
We work the whole city and out into the county. That includes The Colonies, Bellevue, Westover, Bivins, Traditions, the Greenways, San Jacinto, and everything in between, plus the unincorporated stretches of Potter and Randall County inside about a 30-mile radius of town.
If you are on the edge of that, or out past it toward Bushland or Canyon, we cover those too:
Why go with a local outfit?
Outlaw Haulin is owned and operated by Pete Martinez, out of Amarillo. When you call, you are getting somebody who knows which streets a truck can actually turn around on and which alleys are too tight to back a container into.
That is not a small thing. A national dispatch number books you a slot and sends whoever is available. A local outfit knows that the older parts of town have alley access a modern roll off truck cannot always use, and will tell you that on the phone instead of discovering it in your driveway.
What can’t go in the container?
Same rules everywhere, and worth knowing before you start loading:
No hazardous chemicals, pesticides, or solvents. No liquids, motor oil, or antifreeze. No paint or thinner. No propane tanks or aerosol cans. No tires, car batteries, or asbestos. Appliances with Freon in them, like refrigerators, freezers, and window units, need to be handled before disposal, so ask first rather than tossing one in.
Everything in a normal remodel, tear-off, or cleanout is fine.
How do I get a price in Amarillo?
Call or text (806) 290-0166 and describe the job. What kind of debris, roughly how much, and where it needs to sit. That is usually a two-minute conversation and it gets you a real answer.
Photos help on clean outs, where volume is the whole question. Send them through here if that is easier than talking it through.
