Waste Management’s seasonal service of collecting Yard Waste always runs on or following April 1st to the last service day on or prior to November 30th of each year.
Grass, weeds, vegetation, small branches/twigs, etc. cannot be placed in your regular trash container. Yard waste must be placed in a specified paper bag available at grocery or hardware stores or in a receptacle marked with a yard waste sticker available at City Hall or with an “X”. Yard waste placed in plastics bags cannot be collected and will be left.
Large items such as furniture or kitchen appliances can be placed at the curb and will be collected, usually on your regular trash day. There is no additional charge for large item pick-up. We ask that you call Waste Management at 800-796-9696 to let them know you have a large item out, because they may have to send a special truck for the pick-up.
Waste Management does not accept hazardous waste or materials such as oil paint cans, motor oil, tires, propane tanks, automotive parts or construction materials.
If a Holiday falls on Wednesday or Thursday your service will fall one day behind. The following holidays are observed: New Years Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.
