The Williamson County Landfill and Hutto Recycling Center are owned by Williamson County and operated by WM.
The Williamson County Landfill is a municipal solid waste landfill operating under the strict regulations of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). It was permitted by the TCEQ in December 1981. The county has contracted with WM of Texas (formerly Waste Management of Texas) since the mid-1980s to operate the facility.
The landfill is permitted to accept non-hazardous household, commercial and special waste, as well as construction and demolition debris. The landfill does not accept regulated hazardous or radioactive waste.
The Williamson County Landfill is located between Hutto and Georgetown on Highway 1660. Located on the west side of 1660, the landfill is located between Highway 79 and Highway 29. Look for the WM sign and the Recycling Center building.

WM also manages operations of the Hutto Recycling Center. The Recycling Center accepts, at no charge, used oil, paint, scrap metal, cardboard, newspaper and magazines, aluminum cans, plastic, batteries, light bulbs, cell phones for the Crisis Center, and electronic waste such as computers and laptops.
