Built for Southeast Texas Tough

I'll never forget that first week after Hurricane Ike in 2008. Our whole crew was out there with chainsaws and grapple hooks, clearing fallen oaks from Highway 96 while the power was still out. That's when we realized Lumberton needed a roll-off service that wouldn't flinch at Texas-sized messes. Today, our fleet's got heavy-duty axles specifically for wet debris loads, and we keep storm-ready containers prepped during hurricane season. Learned real quick you need low-profile trucks for flooded streets and driveway mats that won't sink in gumbo clay. What sets us apart isn't just the equipment — it's knowing which concrete disposal sites stay open when the rain's coming sideways, or how to tarp loads so the county scales don't flag water weight. After 16 years, we've handled everything from post-storm FEMA jobs to clearing out Grandma Gibson's chicken coop. You'll always get three things from us: (1) same-day dropoffs when the weather turns, (2) honest advice about what actually fits in each container, and (3) drivers who know every backroad from Kountze to Sour Lake. Still family-owned, still running the same trucks we rebuilt after Ike — just with better mud tires now.

About Big Thicket Roll-Offs — Part 2

Lumberton, TX roll-off service with straightforward scheduling and cleanup support.

Built for Southeast Texas—By People Who Live Here

Big Thicket Roll-Offs operates on three truths: disaster debris behaves differently than construction waste, every neighborhood has unique access challenges, and hauling contracts require human judgment. We've fine-tuned our approach through hurricanes, freezes, and countless roof replacements—always adapting to Lumberton's specific needs while maintaining EPA compliance and transparent customer relationships.

  • 01

    Local Experience Matters

    We know Lumberton's terrain, weather patterns, and disposal sites because we've operated here since 2008. Our team understands how coastal humidity affects debris compaction and which roads flood during heavy rains.

    In Practice

    After Hurricane Ike, we modified our dumpsters with higher sidewalls to prevent lightweight debris from blowing out.

  • 02

    Right Equipment for the Job

    Our compact footprint dumpsters fit tight driveways, while heavy-duty models handle concrete. We match container size to project scope—no guesswork.

    In Practice

    Used 20-yarders for 90% of post-Ike tear-outs—big enough for roof shingles but maneuverable on residential streets.

  • 03

    No Hidden Surprises

    Clear pricing includes delivery, pickup, and disposal fees. We explain weight limits and prohibited items upfront—no last-minute charges.

    In Practice

    Walk homeowners through our prohibited items list before loading begins.

  • 04

    Community Commitment

    We train locals in waste sorting and donate usable materials to Habitat for Humanity. Every job starts with protecting your property.

    In Practice

    Lay plywood under dumpsters to prevent driveway marks—standard practice we developed after asphalt damage claims in 2009.

You'll deal with an owner who remembers your last job, not a call center.

Locally Owned, Built on Trust

Earl Gibson

Earl Gibson founded Big Thicket Roll-Offs in 2008 after watching Southeast Texas communities struggle to recover from Hurricane Ike. He saw neighbors overwhelmed by storm debris and frustrated by unreliable haulers who overpromised and underdelivered. That’s when he decided to build a local roll-off service rooted in honesty and hard work. Today, Earl still personally checks every job site to ensure clean, compliant disposal. We haul it away, so you don't have to worry—because trust isn’t just a slogan, it’s how we’ve operated since day one in Lumberton.

Hurricane Debris Cleanup Lumberton, TX

After Ike, the pile-up outside the house had nowhere to go

After Hurricane Ike tore through Southeast Texas in 2008, we saw yards in Lumberton buried under broken limbs, soaked sheetrock, and shingles that smelled like wet tar. Folks had tarps flapping, chainsaws still out, and nowhere to stack the mess without making the place feel worse. Earl knew then that a family didn’t need more stress piled onto an already rough cleanup, because the debris kept sitting there and the recovery couldn’t really start until it moved.

We rolled in with the right box size, set it where the driveway held, and loaded storm debris in a way that kept the site usable. Our crew watched for mixed material, because hurricane cleanup gets tricky fast when you’ve got wood, metal, and household waste all tangled together. We hauled the load out and kept the work moving so the property could breathe again. That’s the kind of job that shaped Big Thicket Roll-Offs from the start.

I felt like I could finally take a breath once their trailer showed up and the debris started disappearing.

Construction Debris Hauling Lumberton, TX

A renovation pile in the heat can take over a jobsite fast

On a hot Lumberton afternoon, we pulled up to a remodel where the old flooring, drywall scraps, and packaging had already started baking in the sun. The smell of cut lumber and dust hung in the air, and every walk from the door to the pile took another step out of a worker’s path. Earl built this company after seeing how fast debris can slow real progress, and that clutter had the whole project squeezed tight.

We dropped a roll-off where the crew could toss material without dragging it across finished areas, then we kept an eye on load balance so the container stayed safe to move. That matters on mixed construction jobs, because one bad stack can waste a whole afternoon. We hauled the debris out cleanly and gave the contractor room to keep swinging hammers instead of working around waste. The job stayed on schedule in the way that only happens when the mess leaves first.

Once they got that dumpster in place, our crew stopped tripping over debris and got back to work.
