Get your rakes out, neighbors! The City of Pittsburgh offers Special Curbside Collection Days twice a year to promote environmentally-friendly disposal of your seasonal yard debris. The Fall Yard Debris Collection will take place in our neighborhood on Saturday, November 16. The City will collect the following items curbside:
- Leaves
- Branches (4″ diameter or less)
- Brush
- Grass
As you collect your yard debris, keep in mind:
- All items must be in paper bags weighing less than 35 pounds
- Do not use plastic bags
- Bundle all branches with fiber twine or natural rope in lengths of 5 feet or less
Set your items out at the curb at your regular collection spot before 6:00 am on Saturday, November 16. Any yard waste that does not meet the collection guidelines will be left at the curb.
