A note from the yard waste pickup company- Compost Connection
To provide the best possible service for the collection of your yard waste, we are providing the following guidelines.
Route Service begins at 7:00 a.m. Please make sure all items are easily accessible from the street. If items are blocked by cars, trees, bushes, trash containers or other materials, they may not be collected.
Your limit for yard waste is 20 paper bags/ bundles on each monthly scheduled pickup day. Please keep yard waste bags separate from trash and recycling carts so they are easy to view and are not damaged by collection equipment.
Waste should be visible from both directions. Maximum item weight is 50 pounds.
Your yard waste can be placed at the curb in either paper yard waste bags or bundles that are no larger than 18” x 36” and double tied with twine. Mark thorns for collection safety.
Do not use plastic tape on paper bags since it is not biodegradable.
Small cardboard boxes may be used provided they are no larger than the size and weight limits. We suggest boxes for fruits, small brush, wood, or items that would easily break a bag during removal.
We only pickup natural yard waste including grass, leaves, tree limbs, flower, or garden plants (without their pots), walnuts and apples.
Christmas Trees are the only items that do not require bagging or bundling. We will accept Christmas trees up to 6’ in length, if larger please cut in half.
All materials collected are taken to a licensed compost facility. This recycling facility does not allow for ANY trash, landscape, or construction materials.
If bags contain trash or foreign materials, they will have to be left at the curb. Any plastic inside your bag will be considered trash and not picked up.
We do NOT collect animal waste or dead animals.
Wet &/or deteriorated bags/bundles may have to be rebagged.
We appreciate your business and look forward to providing quality service. Compost Connection
