Proper Preparation:
Only source separated greenwaste is accepted, all other non-plant materials not listed as acceptable material is contamination. To prevent contamination, greenwaste should be separated from all other types of waste material prior to delivery. Larger plant material (i.e. logs and stumps 8 inches or more in diameter) should be cut to lengths of 8 feet or less. When delivering greenwaste be sure to remove all ropes, canvas, film, plastic (bags), and tie-downs used to secure greenwaste in your vehicle.
