Yard Waste

Brush and lawn debris will be picked up every Monday from April through November. For leaf pick-up, it is required that they be placed in biodegradable paper bags and placed at the curb. Please be careful to place the bags so they don’t fall into the street and cause a hazard.

Christmas Trees may be placed at the curb to be picked up after the holiday.
