September 23, 2009 - The City of Tomball awarded a new contract for Solid Waste
Collection and Disposal Services to WCA Waste Corporation, which
will become effective October 1, 2009. There have been no changes to
the level of services you are accustomed to, and for all residential
customers and most commercial customers, your rates will be lower!
For Residential Customers
In order to provide cost effective service, reduce holiday
delays, and minimize the impact to the environment, all
residential garbage collection will occur on MONDAY and THURSDAY
of each week.
All recycling will be picked on Monday of each week.
All properly placed heavy trash and brush will be picked on
Thursday of each week.
For Commercial Customers
Commercial customers will begin using new WCA Waste
Corporation (blue) dumpsters, and Waste management will begin
removing their containers on October 1, 2009.
If you do not have a new container by October 1, 2009, or do
not have space for both, WCA Waste Corporation will deliver your
new container(s) as soon as Waste Management removes the old
one(s).

City of Tomball Issues Stage
2 Mandatory Water
Restrictions.
The city is requiring
customers to water only on
specified watering days.
The hot and dry
conditions have placed
stress on one of the city’s
well pumps; therefore it is
necessary to
temporarily shut down one of
the city’s water wells for
maintenance. The city is requiring
customers to water only
on specified watering days.
You can also help by
reducing watering durations,
postponing car washing and
limiting all other
non-essential water use to
further minimize the demand
on the city’s water system.
Based on the necessary pump
maintenance, the city has
determined that it is
necessary to initiate Stage
II Mandatory
Water
Restrictions of the Drought
Contingency Plan in order to
preserve public health,
safety, and welfare.
The guidelines for Stage II
are as follows;
Drought Contingency
Plan – Stage II
It is mandatory that City
of Tomball water customers
limit the irrigation of
landscaped areas to:
Tuesdays, Thursdays,
