Yard Waste
Yard waste is the generic term for items that are collected separately from solid waste and household garbage. This is done to conserve space in landfills. Waste can be made up of grass clippings, leaves, garden waste, and other plant matter. It may also include materials such as branches and brush cuttings removed from lawns or gardens during yard work or pruning. Take shrub clippings to your local waste management center and discard in an area designated for yard waste. Garbage collection and recycling are collected separately.
Recycling is not to be bagged but loose into tip cart.
