Leaves & Grass Collection Program 2009

The leaves and grass collection program has once again expanded in 2009. Subscribers to the program receive bi-weekly pickup of their leaves and grass - keeping those organics out of the landfill. Pick-ups run from early May to early November. All collected material is composted.

How does the program work? The subscription cost for the program is $40. Subscribers to the program are provided with an individual green leaf and grass roll-out cart. The contents of these carts are collected throughout the growing season. A calendar of collection dates is provided once you are accepted into the program.

This is a first-come, first-served service so make sure to register early to avoid disappointment.

All material must be unbagged, and must consist of only leaves, grass clippings, and non-woody vegetation. Tree branches, woody stalks, household organic waste or any bagged material is unacceptable and will not be picked up.
