Leaf & Yard Waste Pick-Up

Yard Waste Pick-Up Guidelines

• Yard waste is collected on Thursdays. Residents must call 952-939-1382 to request yard waste bag pickup by 2 p.m. on Wednesday or submit a request here.
• Every bag must have a yard waste sticker affixed to it, facing the street or alley so it's visible to drivers.
• Stickers are $3 each and may be purchased in person at City Hall or Public Works. To have stickers sent to you in the mail (minimum of 10) you can call 952-939-1382 and the cost will be placed on your utility bill.
• Yard waste must be bagged. Maximum size bag is 55-gallon, weighing no more than 40 pounds. Yard Waste must be bagged in a compostable bag; either paper bags or BPI certified compostable plastic bags.
• Place yard waste at the normal refuse collection site, at least four feet away from your refuse and recycling containers.
• Items not accepted include:
  • Animal feces (please clean up after pets before raking your lawn)
  • Branches
  • Long twigs
  • Stump grindings
  • Sod waste
  • Shrub clippings
  • Woody vines
• No garden products such as melons, pumpkins, squash, potatoes, apples, and tomatoes, should be placed in yard waste bags. Place unused garden products such as these into your regular garbage container.
