How yard waste drop-off works
Keep yard waste free of trash, plastic bags, rocks and dirt. Many sites want leaves loose or in paper bags only.
Branches often have a size limit (length and diameter). Stumps and large logs may go to a different area or cost more.
Some compost sites sell or give away mulch and compost made from what residents bring in.
