Please read carefully as pick-up items must meet these requirements:

Residents are entitled to one (1) free yard debris and (1) free white goods pick-up per month; additional requests during the same month will incur a charge of $30.00 per pick-up. 

Items must be placed at the curb at least 24 hours in advance of the requested pick-up date.  City employees will not go onto a resident's property to collect.

These services are only intended for residents.  Contractors who perform yard work should not place their cuttings at the curb but should take them with them and dispose of them in a proper manner as city crews will not collect debris left by contractors.
