City Announces Yard Waste Collection Dates

The Alliance Landfill is pleased to announce that yard and garden waste collection began on Wednesday, April 3, 2024.

Residents are urged to deposit their yard waste directly into the provided blue containers, loose rather than in plastic bags. To maintain the efficiency of the collection process, we ask you to refrain from disposing garbage in your yard waste containers. Additionally, we kindly request that sticks be broken into smaller pieces and placed in the refuse dumpsters instead of the yard waste containers.

Yard and garden waste containers will be emptied on normal collection days, ensuring a smooth and timely process for our community.
