Fall is almost here, and the leaves are beginning to fall. Here’s how to properly dispose of your green waste and keep our recycling carts contamination free:
- Curbside Waste Pickup (If it fits, that’s it)
Use any extra space in your gray refuse cart for bagged yard waste, leaves, grass, or small trimmings. Just be sure that the refuse cart lid closes completely.
- Bundle or Bag What Doesn’t Fit
Bundle Branches no more than 4 ft long and 2 ft across, weighing under 40 lbs. Or place yard waste in transparent bags. (up to 15 bags or bundles per week and/or tagged refuse)
- Please leave three feet of space between your green waste and other objects.
- Drop it Off at the Mulch Site
You can drop off loose tree branches, grass clippings and leaves. (The mulch site will not accept anything over 24 inches in diameter. No root balls or trees with foreign materials such as fence or concrete, rock, pipe, lumber or treated wood, trash, dirt or building materials.)
2100 N. 145th E. Ave.
Open Sunday-Tuesday and Thursday-Saturday 7:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m., excluding City of Tulsa holidays
Always remember, yard waste does NOT go in your blue recycling cart.
