Do I still have yard waste collection?

Yard waste will be collected every other week starting in April through until the second week of December in the urban areas.

Are the compostable plastic bags that are acceptable in the GreenCart, acceptable for yard waste?

No, certified compostable plastic bags are not accepted in the yard waste program, because yard waste material is composted differently than the GreenCart material. Yard waste is composted in outdoor rows at the HWMS and we are concerned that the compostable plastic bags could cause litter problems at the site.
