Beach City Landscape Services

Contact Your Local Beach City Public Works or Solid Waste Department for Green Waste Info

Beach City residents benefit from organized green waste management programs that support both environmental quality and regulatory compliance. Yard trimmings, brush, and bulk green waste are collected on scheduled days—typically monthly or seasonally—depending on the area. Accepted materials include grass clippings, leaves, branches, and shrub trimmings, which must be placed in biodegradable paper bags or reusable containers; plastic bags are prohibited to protect composting streams. Brush bundles should not exceed 4 feet in length or 50 pounds. Residents may also use designated drop-off sites for larger loads, with proof of residency required. Commercial landscapers must use approved disposal facilities and may be subject to fees. Dumping or blowing yard waste into streets, ditches, or storm drains is strictly prohibited to prevent water pollution and comply with the Clean Water Act.
