Yard Waste

Yard waste season is April 1st through November 30th only. Yard waste carts are available for your convenience. Another option for yard waste would be to purchase yard waste stickers and biodegradable brown bags that are specifically designed for yard waste. Each bag must have a yard waste sticker affixed to it in order to be picked up.

Please Note: All branches must be cut into 4 foot lengths. Branches must be bundled, tied and have a yard waste sticker on them. Branches can also be placed in a yard waste bag for pickup. For those customers who have a yard waste cart, two bundles of branches are accepted without stickers.
