The annual Residential Yard Waste Program is coming to a close for the 2022 season. The last day for curbside collection of compostable materials is Thursday, September 22.
A friendly reminder:
• Acceptable materials at this time are leaves and grass clippings only.
• Yard waste must be placed in a clear bag and free of animal droppings.
• Place bags for composting curbside, on your property, Thursdays by 7:00 a.m. Please ensure their placement does not obstruct the roadway or the sidewalk.
• To ensure the health and safety of our sanitation workers, the total weight of each bag must not exceed 40 pounds – if you can lift the bag with one hand, it is considered a safe weight for handling. If a bag is deemed too heavy for lifting, it will not be picked up.
