- Please have all yard debris to the curb by 6:00 am on Monday. The amount of debris to be collected affects workflow, therefore we cannot predict which day we will reach your home; however, every street is serviced once a week.
- All yard debris (grass, leaves, straw, small debris) must be placed in separate piles to make it easier for our crew to pick up.
- No Debris is to be put on the street to include (grass, leaves, straw, and limbs/brush).
- Please keep items away from traffic, parked cars, and utility poles, boxes, etc. The City cannot collect yard debris which is around or near obstacles using the knuckle boom truck.
- Yard Debris should be placed between sidewalk and curbing. If there is not enough space between sidewalk and curbing, debris should be placed on the customer’s side of the sidewalk.
- No limbs, branches or trunks longer than 6 feet in length or larger than 8 inches in diameter.
- No tree stumps, root balls, dirt or soil will be collected.
- We will not pick up any yard debris that is placed at the curb by any type of equipment.

- Leaves must be raked loose to the back of the curb or edge of the yard.
- Loose leaves must be piled within 6 feet of the edge of the pavement to ensure accessibility for our equipment. Please do not pile leaves in the street or gutter. We will not be able to collect piles within 5 feet of parked cars.
- Grass clippings and trimmings may also be placed at the curb and will be collected by the Vacuum Truck. No branches please. Branches must be placed in a separate pile.

For the convenience of our residences:
Upon request, the City will provide a trailer to be delivered to your home for yard debris removal. Trailers may be requested through the Water Department at City Hall. Trailers are delivered around 2 PM on the requested day and will be collected the next working day.
