Extra Yard Waste
Wheeled yard waste carts make collecting and transporting yard waste convenient and safe. Lifting heavy cans and bags of yard
waste can be a safety hazard for residents and collectors. Extra yard waste can be put out for collection. Please keep the following guidelines in mind to reduce safety hazards.
Extra yard waste may be put in
- your own containers (32-gallon, 40 lb. limit), or
- reusable polywoven yard waste bags, or
- compostable bags or kraft paper yard waste bags, or
- bundles (4'x2' limit).
Christmas Trees:
If you currently have Unlimited Yard Waste Service, your Christmas tree may be picked up during your designated collection week at no additional cost.
If you do not have yard waste service, please call your Waste Management Customer Service Center to have your tree picked up for just $5.00.
