It is the sole responsibility of Clinton residents to properly dispose of yard waste.
The city's waste management contractor will remove all yard waste that meets specific criteria concerning weight, length and packaging. Yard waste such as leaves, trimmings and pine straw must be placed in bags, tied and placed curbside for collection on the second trash collection day of the week.
Limbs and other trimmings should not exceed five feet in length and no greater than eight inches in diameter. Limbs and/or bundled branches may not weigh more than sixty pounds or exceed two cubic yards and should be placed next to the trash receptacle.
Yard debris will be collected on the last collection day of the week.
It is against city ordinances to blow or rake leaves into storm drains or into the gutter and prohibit the piling of leaves and yard refuse curbside for more than 14 days.
