Late Summer Yard Debris Pick-Up​

​

The highway crew will be doing a ONE DAY pick up of bagged yard debris on FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13.

 

We ask that yard debris is bagged up in brown paper yard bags. Large limbs and tree branches will NOT be accepted. Also, please do not put the bags out too far ahead of time if rain is expected, as the crew cannot pick up soaked bags. 

 

We thank you in advance for your cooperation.
