When a hauler makes more sense in Live Oak
Monthly bulk collection works if your timing lines up with the first week of the month. If it doesn't — a move-out mid-month, a garage cleanout, an old appliance or a remodel — a hauler doesn't wait. We come when you call, and we take what a monthly curbside program won't.
