Arrangements Must Be Made To Pick Up Tree Branches

According to the release, branches will be picked up on the third Thursday of every month, and anyone wanting to have branches picked up needs to contact the Sanitation Office ahead of time. The release says  ''Branches must be cut down to three feet in length, left unbundled, and placed for collection by 6 a.m. the day of pickup (and no earlier than 4 p.m. the day before). There is no additional charge for those with yard waste containers and others will be charged a fee per cubic yard.''

You can also drop off yard waste at the Compost Facility (3714 Windmill Road), which  is available for disposal of residential yard waste year-round from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Tuesday through Saturday. But remember that large loads are not accepted after 4:30 p.m.
