Residential Yard Waste / Vegetation​

Residential yard waste and vegetation is collected one (1) time per week.

Yard waste refers to debris from routine residential yard maintenance only. Debris from land clearing or tree removal is not eligible to be collected at the curb. Each week, a maximum of one (1) 6 cubic yard pile of yard waste is collected.

To avoid service interruption:

  • Make sure pile does not exceed one (1) 6 cubic yard pile.
  • Keep it separate from other debris and free of dirt or sand.
  • Place loose vegetation like leaves, tree and hedge trimmings, pine needles, etc. in a container such as a paper bag or garbage can.
  • Cut branches into pieces that are no more than 6 feet long, 6 inches in diameter, and weigh no more than 50 pounds each. Palm fronds can be any length.
  • Neatly stack tree branches and palm fronds in a pile that does not exceed 6 cubic yards.

Yard waste that exceed one (1) 6 cubic yard pile will not be serviced. They will be tagged and it will be the residents’ responsibility to arrange for removal, either by hauling it to a permitted disposal facility, making arrangements with a private hauler, or contacting the SWA for a removal estimate based on a contract rate of $8 per cubic yard. Once paid, the yard waste will be removed within 72 hours. Note: Coconuts are not yard waste and must be placed in your garbage cart.
