Yard waste is collected from April through November on the same day as your regular trash pickup. To ensure collection, set your yard waste out by 6:00 a.m.  Beginning the first full week of the months of April and November and continuing thru those respective months, yard waste stickers are not required for collection.

Guidelines:

• All yard waste must be placed in biodegradable paper bags or tied in bundles. Each bag or bundle must have a yard waste sticker or brush tie attached.
• Yard waste stickers are available for purchase at East Moline Jewel, Silvis Hy-Vee, and East Moline City Hall for $1.50 each. .
• Brush ties can also be purchased at the above locations for $1.75 each.  Brush and tree branches must:
  • Be no longer than 4 feet
  • Be no thicker than 4 inches in diameter
  • Be bundled with jute twine or uncoated string
  • Not exceed 2 feet in diameter or 50 pounds in weight
•  Republic Services offers a voluntary annual yard waste cart subscription for $108.12 per year, billed in monthly installments of $9.01. Participation in this service is optional, and yard waste bag stickers will still be available for those who prefer to continue using yard waste bags and avoid the monthly fee. To sign up, please call 309-752-1530.
• Mulching your leaves is not only good for your lawn, but it can also save you time and money. So instead of bagging leaves & send them to a landfill, mulch them instead! In early fall when leaf drop is slow, simply mow the leaves into your lawn. As leaf drop increases or if you have a pile-up of leaves, increase the mowing height as high as it can go. Then continue to mow over the leaves on a weekly basis. It is as simple as that. Just like grass clippings, tree leaves have nutrients that will break down over time by the micro-organisms in your soil and will feed your grass.
  Mulching your leaves is also good for the environment. Did you know that yard waste accounts for nearly 12% of the trash collected in the United States? Composting yard litter like leaves helps reduce the amount of methane emitted from landfills and lowers our collective carbon footprint.
