Yard Waste & Composting Programs Return in April
Yard Waste Bag
Flood Brothers begins their yard waste pickup program during the first week of April. Yard waste is collected during your regular garbage pickup day.

Residents receive free yard waste pickup for the first collection of the year (up to 7 bundles or bags). Residents may either order a 95-gallon yard waste cart from Flood Brothers, which is billed annually each April, or purchase individual yard waste stickers for disposal.

Residents who purchase a yard waste cart may participate in the Flood Brothers composting program by including food scraps in the cart. Composting is not available through the bag and sticker yard waste program. 

Find information on collection dates, sticker purchase locations, and more on the Village's website at www.roselle.il.us/Yard-Waste.
