The City is once again offering free Lawn and Garden Waste removal for residents within City limits.
Garden waste will be transported to the composting station at the RDEK Transfer Station and must be placed on the curb by 7:00 a.m. in the same location as regular garbage pick-up in all areas except the Annex and Maintown which will be picked up in the alley. You DO NOT HAVE TO REGISTER for the lawn and garden waste pick up.
GARDEN REFUSE MUST BE bagged in clear plastic bags and tree / brush clippings must be securely bundled and piled in such a way that it can be picked up by a loader. PLEASE DO NOT PILE UP LOOSE LEAVES AND MATERIALS – You will be responsible for cleaning up wind blown debris.
