What Can Be Collected:

• Grass clippings
• Garden waste

Collection Options:

• Self-Haul: Yard waste can be taken to any City yard waste site.
• Weekly Collection: Begins the week after Spring Clean Up—check the City calendar for exact dates. Yard waste will be picked up on your regular refuse collection day. Please keep containers 4 feet away from your refuse container.

Preparation Guidelines:

• Container Requirements:
• Place yard waste loosely in an open container (no plastic bags).
• Containers should be 32 gallons or less.
• Cardboard boxes or paper bags can also be used.

Consider Grass-Cycling:

• Benefits:
• Mow often, leaving the grass no shorter than 3 inches.
• Grass clippings help retain moisture and reduce the need for watering.
• Clippings release nitrogen, reducing the need for fertilizing
