Austin’s Capital City Location

We're proud to serve Austin, TX - our state's vibrant capital city where South Congress food trucks and the historic Hyde Park district create a unique cultural landscape.
As your local hazardous waste experts, we recognize the challenges that Austin's sweltering summers bring, with temperatures often climbing above 100°F in the humid central Texas climate.
Our team knows that these extreme conditions can affect how chemicals and hazardous materials need to be handled, which is why we're committed to providing safe disposal services that account for Austin's specific environmental factors.
South Congress Food Trucks
South Congress in Austin is a vibrant hub of activity, with a diverse array of food trucks that line the streets.
We can smell rich spices and hear sizzling grills as locals and visitors explore fresh tacos, barbecue, and sweets from the beloved food trucks on South Congress.
While these culinary hotspots energize our community, keeping the area clean and safe is everyone’s job.
Improper disposal of cooking oils, cleaning chemicals, or greasy containers from food trucks poses real risks, so let’s remain vigilant—checking labels, using bins, and calling professionals if unsure, especially since ADCO Environmental Services doesn’t handle residential waste.
Hyde Park Historic District
As residents of Austin's Hyde Park Historic District go about their daily lives, maintaining both the historic charm and safety of their homes is essential.
The area's unique Hyde Park history and architecture are preserved through careful restoration and maintenance. Ensuring home safety involves managing potential hazards, such as hazardous waste, which isn't a service ADCO Environmental Services offers to residential clients.
Instead, residents must turn to local municipalities for waste disposal solutions to keep their community safe and vibrant. This approach helps maintain the district's character while safeguarding residents' health.
Humid Summers Reach 100°F
Sitting smack in the heart of Texas, where the sun’s relentless summer heat rarely drops below 90°F and humidity clings like a sticky shroud, Austin’s residents have to balance enjoying the city’s vibrant life with managing the very real risks of sweltering afternoons that often hit triple digits.
High humidity can exacerbate summer safety risks, making it vital to stay hydrated and cool. For safety, residents should regularly check their homes for potential hazards that could worsen during extreme weather conditions.
This includes ensuring proper ventilation and checking for any signs of moisture damage.
