The second Fall Curbside Yard & Garden Waste Pick-up will take place from November 12–14, 2025.
As November 11 is Remembrance Day, regular curbside collection by Tip-it will proceed as usual; however, yard waste collection will begin Wednesday, November 12, as Town crews will be observing the statutory holiday.
Crews will do their best to make up for the missed day, but if your yard waste has not been collected by Friday, please leave it at the curb — collection will continue on Saturday to ensure all routes are completed.
How to prepare:
- Branches and prunings (no larger than 6” in diameter) are to be wrapped in bundles of 3 feet (1 meter) - a manageable size for 1 person to pick up.
- Leaves, twigs, grass cuttings, and organic garden waste must be placed in rigid, weather proof containers (e.g., garbage cans, cardboard boxes), something that can be quickly dumped and returned to the curbside.
- Paper garden bags are permitted.
- NO plastic garbage bags with yard waste will be accepted.
- We ask that you please keep all organic yard waste separate from household recycling items when placing curbside for pick up.
- Yard and garden waste may not be picked up if materials are not prepared as requested. A reminder that yard waste is for organics only and not anything found in the yard. For example: broken lawnmowers, paving stones and garden gnomes are not accepted.
