The web seems to say there isn't or I can't find it.

Shopping center and apartment complex dumpsters in the city of Houston seem to work pretty well.

If you have a lot, spread the wealth and hit up several.

Could get in touch with Habitat for Humanity. We gave them 4-5 20' containers worth of scrap lumber about a year ago.

If it's usable pieces, ReStore will take it for free. It's like a goodwill for building materials. Old doors, windows, lumber, appliances, etc. There are a couple around town

I'm just trying to figure out where to take plastic now. My apartment complex had a recycling dumpster, but idiots kept throwing regular trash into it and it's been taken away now.

I need to find something ITL.
