We will pick up limbs cut by the property owners if they are cut to manageable dimensions and placed by the curb or street.
Tree Service Companies or property owners will be responsible to remove all trees cut by a hired Tree Service Company.

Leaf/Grass Clipping Collection

City Ordinance states leaves/grass clippings should be bagged; this keeps our storm drains clear of debris which helps to alleviate storm water from backing up onto properties.
Bagged leaves/grass clippings should be placed next to curb or street separated from other debris.

Appliance Collection

Appliances will be removed if placed by the curb with some stipulations for some items.
Refrigerators, Freezers and any other items containing FREON must have the Freon removed by a licensed technician and must have a label applied indicating as such.
Also the doors must be removed as well.
LANDFILL WILL NOT ACCEPT APPLIANCES WITHOUT THIS SAID LABEL.

Miscellaneous Collection Items

Miscellaneous items such as household furniture or carpet will be picked up if placed by the curb.
Any small items will need to be bagged to prevent the scatter of debris.

ALL CONSTRUCTION DEBRIS WILL BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CONTRACTOR TO PROPERLY DISPOSE OF.

TV’s AND TIRES WILL NOT BE DISPOSED OF BY THE TRASH SERVICE. THESES ITEMS WILL NEED TO BE SEPERATED FROM THE OTHER ITEMS AT THE CURB. YOU MUST CALL THE UTILITY DEPARTMENT AND SCHEDULE THESE ITEMS TO BE PICKED UP.
