Other notes

  • Yard/compost-material drop-offs only, not general garbage or food-scrap composting.
  • Accepted city list: dirt/sod, garden debris, grass, leaves, brush/branches/shrub trimmings. Unlike some nearby programs, dirt/sod are explicitly listed here; do not generalize to other towns.
  • No containers or bags, contractor debris, invasive species, rocks/stones or trash including food scraps. Empty material out and take containers away.
  • City directs invasive plants into bagged household trash under WDNR NR40 guidance, not open yard piles.
  • City current fall 2026 curbside deadline November 15 does not end facility service: sites continue on seasonal hours. Do not confuse curbside collection routes with drop-off access.
