Beauregard Parish Transitions Residential Trash Collection Services

Lake Charles, LA, September 24, 2026 —

Beauregard Parish is undergoing a significant change in its residential trash collection services, shifting from Waste Connections to Waste Pro. This transition is set to commence this week as parish crews begin the process of collecting the old trash carts that were previously used by Waste Connections. The contract with Waste Connections is currently expiring.

Residents can anticipate receiving new trash carts from Waste Pro in the coming weeks. The official start date for the new service provider, Waste Pro, is slated to be around October 1st. Further details regarding the distribution of new carts and the exact commencement of services will be communicated to residents.

The parish is managing the logistics of collecting the existing carts to facilitate a smooth handover to the new service provider. This operational shift involves coordinating parish crews for the cart collection across the residential areas.

Waste Pro is expected to take over all residential trash collection duties following the completion of the cart exchange and the official start date. Residents are advised to look out for the new carts and to be aware of the updated collection schedule once Waste Pro’s service is fully operational, which is targeted for early October.
