Extra Yard Waste
For any yard waste that does not fit in the cart supplied by the city, you can use:
- A 32-gallon can with handles, purchased from a home or garden store. Label your can "yard waste," and fill it loosely, so that it will empty easily when turned upside down.
- Bundles, tied with fiber twine, up to 4 feet long by 2 feet in diameter. Do not use wire, nylon cording, or plastic banding to tie these bundles.
- Approved compostable bags. They can be ordered online or bought at many stores. See where to buy compostable bags.
- Kraft paper bags, available at many home and garden retailers
- Reusable yard waste bags, made of polyethylene. The bag stands open by itself, has snap-shut flaps, stores flat and is reusable and durable. Bags can be bought online from BagIt System or at local hardware or lawn and garden stores.
