Program Guidelines

• Set your green waste out by 7 a.m. on your collection day but no earlier than 6 p.m. the evening before. No more than 10 cubic yards will be collected.
• Loose materials such as grass clippings and leaves should be placed in a reusable container or in bags and tied. Clear or translucent bags are recommended. Compostable bags are not required.
• If a reusable container is used, it needs to be removed from the curb by the end of the day, after your collection has occurred.
• Brush and tree limbs must be less than 4 inches in diameter and less than 4 feet in length; or between 4 and 6 inches and less than 2 feet in length.
• Brush and tree limbs must be stacked in small piles (3 feet high and 3 feet wide). Bundling of tree limbs is not required, but recommended.
• Green waste should be set out at the curb at least four feet from other objects.
• Do not place green waste in your city issued garbage or recycle cart.
• If you have a lawn care professional tending your yard, please request that they service your yard prior to your collection day.
