Residents who receive Solid Waste Services provided by the City of San Antonio will automatically receive services once CPS Energy has been connected at the residence. If the service has not been connected, please contact CPS Energy at (210) 353-2222 to establish service. The solid waste service fees are charged based on the size of the garbage container and are billed monthly on the CPS Energy bill. Recycle and Organic services are included.
