Spring Unprepared Yard Waste and Trash Collection Begins Mid-March

The Town special spring cleanup kicks off the week of March 20 for some solid-waste routes.

Get ready for the Town's 2023 spring special curbside pickup for unprepared yard waste and trash.

For this pickup, yard waste does not have to be bagged or bundled, and the usual size specifications for weekly pickup do not apply. Our hard-working Public Works crews also will be picking up excess trash and bulky items such as old furniture.

To accommodate different pickups, please separate your items by these categories: yard waste, bulky waste and mattresses (contact Public Works about mattress pickup).

The schedule for this special spring collection is as follows:

The department can be reached at publicworksservicedesk@garnernc.gov or at 919.772.7600.

There are some things our crews cannot collect—namely, waste generated by tree companies and contractors, household appliances, tires, paint, hazardous waste and electronics.
