Happy Thanksgiving from the City of Garland!
About us
Garland is where things are made. Products, careers and opportunities are made here. Friendships that last a lifetime are made here, and generations of families have made this part of Texas their home. As early as the mid-1800s, settlers began arriving in what is now Garland. The pioneers found the black soil ideal for cotton and the communities of Duck Creek and Embree thrived on that crop. In 1886, two railroad lines built depots in the area. Eventually those two communities combined and became Garland, officially incorporated in 1891. Garland enjoys a rich history that has shaped it into the thriving metropolitan-area city that offers its residents and businesses a high quality of life, excellent educational and workforce development opportunities, and is enhanced by community leadership and partners. Garland is proud of its affordable and business-friendly climate.

🌟 Shining a Light on Community Heroes! 🌟 Today, we’re celebrating one of our very own sanitation workers, Chris, for his extraordinary act of kindness and quick thinking! While on his regular route, Chris spotted a stalled truck creating a hazardous situation at the busy intersection of Hwy 66 and Centerville. Without hesitation, he helped maneuver the vehicle out of the intersection and into a nearby parking lot, ensuring everyone's safety. ✨ This moment is a powerful reminder of how small actions can make a big difference. Chris’ dedication to his community and willingness to go above and beyond inspire us all. Thank you, Chris, for your outstanding service and commitment to making our community safer! 👏 #GarlandTX #GarlandSanitation #kudos #CommunityChampion #ActsOfKindness #SafetyMatters
