How do I set out my Yard Waste / Debris?
Set-out Instructions:
Grass clippings and leaves are to be placed curbside in brown paper bags OR un-bagged in a personal container clearly marked “yard waste”. Clear plastic bags used for yard waste collection are also acceptable at this time. While clear plastic bags are an acceptable method for collection at this time, they do cause issues at the facility that composts your yard waste.
Each tree limb or piece of brush must be no longer than 4 feet in length and 3 inches thick in diameter. Limbs and brush must be bundled with rope or twine for ease of collection and placement into the truck. Items that are bagged, bundled or placed in your cart may not exceed 50 lb. Mulch, dirt, rock, and sod can NOT be placed curbside.
We will collect up to 5 bags per customer per pick up.
*If you reside in a Municipality or HOA please refer to your community guidelines as those may require more specific preparation requirements.

We CANNOT collect construction waste in our curbside collection trucks. Please contact Customer Support to see if your construction waste warrants a special pick up or is best suited for our Roll-Off Dumpster Service, which can handle large amounts of renovation or construction waste. For more information click here.
Do you recycle construction debris?
Yes! Construction Debris will be recycled at C&D facilities and require a roll-off dumpster. Construction Debris cannot be recycled in your standard trash or recycling cart. Explore our Roll Off Dumpster Service here.

If a personal container is used, it must be a 30-gallon or larger outdoor receptacle. American Disposal Services Inc. is not responsible for any lost, stolen or damaged personal containers.
Can I put my address on my equipment?
All of our carts are numbered with a serial number. We encourage our customers to record this number in a safe place should they ever need to locate a missing cart.

Why is the recycling symbol on Styrofoam, Plastic coated paper or other non-recyclable products?
The recycling symbol isn’t regulated and materials like Styrofoam have very low weight and only very few places that recycle it.
Do I need to remove bottle and jar caps?
No!
Recycling Tip: Donate bottle and jar caps to charities like the Upcycle Creative Reuse Center
Why should items be placed loosely in the bin?
Your mixed recycle bin is sorted into different categories for recycling. If you have placed items inside one another, the machines will not be able to sort them.
Why should recycling items be empty, clean and dry?
If items once contained food or liquid they must be rinsed clean and given a shake to remove the water before going into your recycle bin. Food and liquid can contaminate the materials. Extremely wet paper or cardboard products will fall apart and are marked as not recyclable.
