Waste Management provides a branch disposal service in conjunction with their yard waste program. Residents are already paying for this service as part of the residential disposal contract with Waste Management.
YARD WASTE/BRANCH PICK-UP GUIDELINES
- Yard Waste/Branches will be picked up on the same day as your regular garbage service (April 1st - Nov. 30th).
- All yard waste and branches must be placed at the curb in accordance with regular trash regulations.
- Brush and branches must measure three inches or less in diameter.
- All branches must be cut into four foot lengths or less and bundled with string or twine. The bundle total weight should be 50 pounds or less.

TREE REMOVALS
- Residents are responsible for the disposal of any materials that do not conform to Waste Management’s guidelines.
- Seniors in need of financial assistance for tree removal should apply for funds through the Good Neighbor Fund in order to hire a contractor.
