ROLL OFF SERVICE
During the Fall of 2021, the City of Mineral Wells solicited competitive bids for our city-wide solid waste collection and disposal franchise agreement to ensure the best pricing, value, and services for Mineral Wells residents and commercial businesses. The company that offered the best value for our City, residentially and commercially, was Frontier Waste Solutions. The contract with Frontier began March 1, 2022, and it has assumed all hauling of solid waste duties in the City of Mineral Wells city limits, including trash bulk waste, and roll off services.
