Do not overload compost bags, and be sure to fold down the tops for easier lifting.
Do not use plastic bags.
If you are using a can, it must have a yard waste sticker.
Face the sticker toward the street and place the container 10 feet from your garbage. It should not be any larger than a 32 gallon can. 50 pound limit.
Please be sure that all yard waste is set out at the curb tied and bundled, in the appropriate container, and properly labeled.
