“Spring Cleaning” and Maintenance for Your Property

Start at the edge of the road and pay special attention to the following on your property: 

-  Waste concrete, stone, brick, and ceramic tile:  These items can be dumped, for free, on the “Fill Wanted” lot at the intersection of Hwy 181 and CR 131 just south of Ewald Tractor. 

-  Metal of all kinds:  Metal can be sold for cash at a salvage company such as Ashley Salvage (210-922-7631) at 4918 Roosevelt Ave, San Antonio, TX.  If you are not concerned about the cash, small amounts of metal can be taken to JP’s Automotive (830-393-2318), 511 10^th St, Floresville, TX, and placed on their back patio to be hauled away with their scrap metal. 

-  Litter, refuse, and junk:  Much of this can be disposed of in your trash.  If you have a large amount of refuse and junk, you can haul it to the Wilson County landfill (830-393-0085) or call one of the following waste disposal companies to make arrangements to have them haul it away for you:  Tiger Sanitation (210-333-4287), Towerlake Disposal (210-636-8354), or Waste Management (866-729-6476). 

-  Storage of materials such as brick, stone, tile, cinder blocks, lumber, pipes, and metal:  Unless you are actively engaged in a construction project that is proceeding without delay, these items must be stored within an enclosure (such as behind a privacy fence) so that they are not visible from any road.   

-  Maintenance of structures including sheds, dog houses, garages, and other outbuildings:  Make necessary repairs and give them a fresh coat of paint.  

-  Unfinished construction:  If you have begun construction of a structure, finish it so that it is of neat appearance. 

-  Vehicles:  All vehicles in our subdivision must be operable and have current registration and safety inspection.  Yellowpages.com lists several companies that will pay you and haul away junk vehicles.  If you have an inoperable vehicle that you are planning to repair or restore, it must be kept inside an enclosed garage with the door shut or within an enclosure (such as a privacy fence) to completely shield it and equipment, tools, parts, supplies, and materials from the view of the public and your neighbors.

Bring these items to the lot with the large sign, "Fill Wanted", at the intersection of Hwy 181 and CR 131 (just south of Ewald Tractor). The entrance is on CR 131. If you have any questions, please call Mr. Emory Jones at 830-393-8190.

Wilson County Dump

Due to the frequent Burn Restrictions in our area, many of our residents are wondering where they can dispose of household trash. The County dump is located on County Road 310 west of Stockdale. The dump is open Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The dump fee is $ 6.25 per cubic yard, or about $13.00 for a loaded pickup truck bed. To get to the dump from Shannon Ridge, take Hwy 181 south into Floresville, then Hwy 97 northeast toward Stockdale. Turn right onto FR 1922, then turn left onto CR 310. The dump is located at the end of CR 310.
