YARD WASTE

Yard waste is vegetative matter resulting from yard and landscaping maintenance on your property and consists of tree branches, leaves, grass clippings, and palm fronds.

  • A total of fifteen (15) containers will be picked up each collection day, in any combination of bags, tied bundles or containers. 
  • Bundles can be no longer than four (4) feet or contain branches larger than four (4) inches in diameter.
