In the spring and fall there are six weeks of no cost, separate yardwaste collection. During these periods yardwaste is collected separately on your regular collection day and taken to the Oma-Gro composting facility. For these periods purchased stickers will not be required for paper yardwaste bags but will continue to be required for bundles of brush. Your black lid garbage cart may also be used for yardwaste, however it will not be composted.
The 2026 yardwaste seasons are scheduled for:
Spring — Starting May 4 and ending June 12
Fall — Starting October 26 and ending December 4
Year around yardwaste may go loose in the black lid cart at no cost. Paper yardwaste bags or bundles of brush outside the cart will require purchased yardwaste stickers except during the separate collection season. For a listing of stores that sell the stickers click here.
The Oma-Gro facility will accept from individuals, yardwaste hauled to them. There is no charge. See information below.
