Leaf and Yard Waste

Yard waste curbside collection is offered to residential properties within urban areas. Materials are to be set out by 7:00 am on your regular collection day.  Leaf and Yard Waste is free for disposal at the Landfill and Transfer Station for residential users. 

Due to the fluctuating volume of yard waste set out for each collection week, collection of material may not occur on your regular collection day but will be completed by the Saturday of that week.
