Yard Waste Collection Days

Yard Waste is collected by a separate truck on your designated trash collection day and should be placed near where your trash is collected by 7 a.m.

Material may be placed in your organics cart, bundled, or in certified compostable bags available for purchase at any home improvement store. Yard Waste for this collection is limited to grass clippings, pine needles, leaves, weeds, branches, sawdust, ground or chipped wood.
