The City of Burkburnett Citizens Collection Station at 2172 Fairview Road is the disposal point for this Wichita Falls-area city of about 11,000 people, and it comes with one restriction that shapes every trip: it is open on Saturdays only, from 9am to 5pm. Several directory sites list it as a weekday facility. It is not. If you turn up on a Tuesday, the gate will be shut.

The pricing is straightforward and, by Texas standards, cheap. There is an $8.00 minimum fee, and above that the rate is $40.00 per ton or $2.00 per 100 pounds. Because the site charges in hundredweight rather than only by the ton, a small load is priced proportionately instead of being rounded up to a one-ton minimum, which is how many landfills handle it. A 400-pound load of household clearance, for example, falls under the $8.00 minimum; a half-ton load works out at around $20.00.

The $40.00 per-ton figure sits below the statewide median for a published landfill rate, which reflects that this is a small municipal collection station rather than a regional landfill taking commercial volumes.

The city does not publish a list of accepted or prohibited materials for the station, nor its payment methods, so we do not carry them. The published contact for questions during the week is City Hall on (940) 569-2263; the station itself is on (940) 569-1321. It is worth a call before a first visit if your load includes anything beyond ordinary household waste, since small stations of this kind commonly refuse tyres, appliances containing refrigerant and construction debris even where the restriction is not written down.

The city's website is not accessible to automated tools, so the figures above were read from the live page directly on 18 August 2026.
