Yard Debris: Branches, grass, leaves, vines, bramble, yard and garden trimmings, tree limbs and branches, cut down to 4feet or shorter. Place yard debris on a tarp that can be pulled with debris on top from your truck or trailer. Neighbors bringing yard debris come equipped to unload what you bring to the cleanup; be sure to wear gloves and bring any tools needed to help unload. Please do NOT bring yard debris carts full of dirt and rocks. They are difficult to empty.

REALLY LARGE items like boats and hot tubs should be hauled directly to the transfer station.
TIP! Prepare Your Load:
- Categorize your load - separate material for easy unloading into the bulky item truck, yard debris box or truck, or metal box.
- Use a tarp liner under yard debris for faster and cleaner unloading
- Put yard debris on the bottom, then the big stuff (furniture), then the other stuff tucked around the big stuff.
- Don’t forget to cover your load to prevent littering if you bring a truck or trailer.
- Come prepare to unload what you bring to the cleanup. Volunteers are there to help you.
- There will also be available a truck to collect usable items for Habitat for Humanities. Please contact them to see what items they do take. All wood must have the nails removed.
