Questions
Answers about pricing, pickups, scheduling and what HCC can remove.
Is there a minimum load?
No minimum load is required. Single couches, appliances and other individual items are welcome.
How much does it cost?
Each job is quoted individually. Send photos of the items and tell Devin your location and any access details so he can provide a quote.
How do I get a quote without an appointment?
Text photos of what needs to go to (903) 275-0638, along with your location and any access details.
Do you take refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners?
Yes. The collection stations do not — anything containing Freon is refused under Clean Air Act rules requiring certified refrigerant recovery before scrapping.
Do you take tires?
No. Hauling scrap tires in Texas requires TCEQ registration under 30 TAC §328.57, including manifests and a registration number displayed on the vehicle. A registered scrap tire facility is the right answer.
Do you take construction debris or do demolition?
No. HCC does not offer construction-debris removal, demolition, dumpster rental or hazardous-waste removal.
How long does an estate cleanout take?
Most single-family homes take one to two days. That assumes the family still needs to walk through and pull things out, and the schedule bends around that.
How long does a garage take?
A single-car garage is usually one to two hours. A two-car garage can run to half a day. A metal shop on acreage is measured in trailer loads rather than hours.
What areas do you cover?
Athens and 18 other towns across Henderson County and Cedar Creek Lake, plus Kemp in Kaufman County and Walton in Van Zandt. Furthest regular run is about 33 minutes.
Are you open on weekends?
Sometimes — it depends on that week's schedule. Weekdays are Mon–Fri, 9:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.. For a Saturday or Sunday, call and ask.
How do I pay?
Venmo, Zelle, check or cash. There is no card processing.
Do you donate or recycle anything?
Usable items are donated where possible. Clean metal is separated for scrap, and its value is considered in the quote.
Will you sweep up afterward?
Yes. HCC sweeps up after the cleanout.
