Yard waste is collected by the city at the curb along with trash and recycling items. Residents must place leaves, grass, twigs, plants, and small brush in 30-gallon biodegradable paper bags. Bags are picked up with regular trash collection.

When can I rake leaves into the street?
In the spring and fall, the city offers a leaf rake-out program. Rake the leaves to the curb the weekend before your collection week. The schedule can be found here.
