Yard waste is defined as leaves, grass clippings, limbs from tree pruning, and hedge trimmings. Yard waste is picked up once per week by the City and this service is covered by your monthly sanitation charge. Additionally, any resident may take yard waste to the County transfer station during its hours of operation. If a resident takes yard waste to the transfer station, fees apply, which are the responsibility of the resident.
Grass clippings and leaves, which can be picked up by a special vacuum truck, should be separate from limbs and hedge trimmings. Limbs and hedge/shrub trimmings can be no larger than 4 inches in diameter and no longer than 4 feet in length.
All yard waste must be neatly placed at the curbside for pickup. No other garbage, paper, metal, construction debris, etc., can be mixed in with yard waste.
