Empty carts must be brought in from the curb by 10 a.m. on the day following collection.

Yard waste includes grass clippings, leaves, shrub trimmings, palm fronds, small tree limbs and branches. It should be placed separately from garbage and recyclables at the curb for collection. If possible, place yard waste in reusable containers like an old garbage can. Paper bags require additional handling to remove contents prior to processing.
