Please put compost in brown bags, or marked garbage cans. Yard waste stickers are available at DPS & City Hall. Bags or cans cannot weight more than
50 lbs. Branches can be no longer than 4′ in length and bundled. Separate compost collection from garbage collection by 5′. Yard waste placed in
improper container or mixed with regular garbage will not be collected.
Compost will be picked up beginning with the week of April 3 through the middle of December. Please plan your clean-ups and trimming accordingly, as compost cannot be mixed with your trash at any time. During the composting period, residents must use a regular refuse container 32 gallon size with a “Yard Waste” recycling sticker or Kraft-type brown paper bag specifically designed for yard waste for curbside yard waste collection. Marked cans and compost bags should be placed at the curb for pickup on the same day as regular refuse collection. Yard waste placed in improper containers or mixed with regular refuse will not be collected. When set out for collection, yard waste shall be separated from regular refuse approximately 5 feet. Call DPS at 734-793-1800 for yard waste stickers.
