In order to ensure collection, bags must be at the front roadside by 7 a.m. on the Monday of your collection week. Pick up will be completed by the end of the week. The following rules apply:
- Bags must not exceed 40 lbs. in weight
- Only clear bags are collected and must not have drawstrings. Bags must be no thicker than one millimeter.
- Bags containing other yard debris (sticks, etc.) and/or pet waste will not be accepted
