To avoid any confusion, it is essential for residents to understand that brush collection and yard waste collection are two separate services with different schedules. Brush refers to tree limbs and branches while yard waste refers to smaller plant materials.

There are specific rules in place for setting out yard waste for collection. Residents are advised to place their leaves and other materials at the street edge or on the terrace on their designated set-out date. It is important not to place any materials into the street as this can cause obstructions and interfere with collection.

Residents who choose to bag their yard waste are encouraged to use compostable paper leaf and lawn bags. These bags should be kept open so that crews can easily see the contents. If residents choose to use other types of bags, they must also be kept open. However, it is important to note that crews may need to rip or slice open plastic bags to collect the yard waste, and any split bags will be left behind at the curb.

For those who are unable to set out their yard waste on their designated date, the Streets Division drop-off sites will also accept yard waste. The hours for these sites will expand on April 11, 2026. Residents are advised to check the drop-off site website for their hours and locations before loading their vehicle.

More information about Streets Division services can be found on their website. Residents are encouraged to visit the website for any additional information or updates regarding yard waste collection and other services provided by the Streets Division.
