What is Considered Yard Waste?

Not Accepted: Tree stumps, lumber, treated wood, pallets, sawdust, dirt/soil, mulch, sod, food waste, bamboo, or other invasive vegetation.
Proper Disposal & Preparation:
- Use paper lawn bags or your own clearly labeled reusable container marked “Yard Waste.” Plastic bags will not be collected. Please view the photos below for acceptable examples of bags, containers, and bundles.
- Sticks and branches must be bundled in 4-foot lengths and weigh under 50 lbs. per bundle. Please use natural twine (like Sisal) to tie bundles.
- No yard waste from tree removal, land clearing, or home renovation projects will be accepted.
Bulk/Special Pickups Reminder:
Do you have an item that won’t fit in your container? A special pickup must be requested in advance for large or bulk items, such as mattresses, appliances, and similar items. Special pickups can be scheduled directly with Gettier at 703.904.9752. Residents are responsible for the collection fee, which starts at $95.
