Curbside Yard Waste Collection
On yard waste day, you can set out one 60-gallon Waste Management provided roll cart (no plastic bags, please) of yard trimmings every week for no extra charge. Any additional 32-gallon can, paper Kraft bag or bundles (Prunings are limited to 4" in diameter and 36" in length) will be subject to an extra charge.
For the safety of our drivers, please have all limbs cut or trimmed so that they do not stick out above the rim of the container.

- Place materials at the curb (not in the street) by 6:00 a.m. on your pickup day.
- Do not use plastic bags, recycling carts or bins, plastic liners or regular garbage cans for yard waste.
