Yard Waste Collection
A number of the communities with curbside recycling service also offer
seasonal yard waste collection. All curbside yard waste programs are
collected on a regular municipal schedule determined by the individual
communities. Note that several municipalities vacuum the leaves while
others collect bagged leaves. Please call your municipal office for
details.
It's still trash if
you do not prepare your yard waste properly.
Don't mix trash
in with your leaves.
When raking leaves
to the curbside for collection, be careful not to clog storm inlets,
drainage ditches or swales.
Don't mix demolition lumber or treated
landscape timbers with tree trimmings or brush that are taken
to compost facilities. These can have toxic paint or preservatives.
