Debris Removal from Recent Ice

We are getting a lot of calls regarding tree limbs from the recent ice in our area. Central Disposal will pick them up at curbside if they comply with the information below:

YARDWASTE SERVICE:
Once A Week - (On your normal pickup day)
. Tree limbs need to be no more than 3 feet in length and no more than 2 inches in diameter and bundled with twine or string.
. Yardwaste should be placed no more than 7 feet from the curbside.
. Yardwaste should be placed at curb for pick up no later than 7:00 a.m.
. Yardwaste is not to be placed in the polycart.

**If you have limbs that are larger than 2 inches in diameter and less than 6 inches in diameter, you can take them to the transfer station located on 45th Street with a current water bill. The limbs that are taken directly to the transfer station don't have to be cut up to the 3 feet in length. They only have to be less than 6 inches in diameter and they do not have to be bundled.

If you have additional questions regarding Central Disposal's yardwaste services, they can be reached at 405-275-0900.
