The Lone Star Recycling and Disposal Facility is a recognized leader in the recycling of organics and in the manufacture of organic products. Our mulch, compost and organic soil blends are made from the finest native raw materials and can be custom blended to meet any customer or project need.
A word of caution! – Beware of sham recyclers who are active in the Houston market. Currently there are only a couple of waste service providers who can legally process/recycle debris. Insist your hauler provide you with a copy of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality permit for the facility where your waste is being processed.
Remember, under state law the waste generator (customer/contractor) maintains responsibility for their debris until it reaches its final, legally permitted disposal facility.
Know where your waste goes – it’s your responsibility!
