Public Works Department - Waste Management

YARD WASTE

Leaves, trimmings and grass clippings will be picked up with regular collections when placed at curbside. Residents do not need to call ahead for the collection of “bagged” yard waste. The City requires yard waste, leaves and grass clippings to be placed in clear plastic bags. Dirt and soil are not an accepted yard waste so please plan accordingly.

Rather than bagging your grass clippings, Public Works suggests that residents leave their clipping on the lawn or mulch them. This saves disposal costs and benefits your lawns by returning vital nutrients to the soil.
