What is Yard Waste? Yard Waste Includes:

Leaf collection
Tree limbs or branches shall not exceed four inches in diameter or more than four feet in length and must be bundled.
Brush or vegetative matter resulting from landscaping maintenance.

When is Yard Waste Picked Up?

Yard Waste is picked up bi-weekly. Please see the Yard Waste Collection Map to determine your collection week. Yard Waste must be out before 7:00 a.m. on the day of your regular garbage pick-up. Collection began March 28 for A week and begins April 4 for B week.
GFL Environmental will collect Yard Waste on your collection week, which started the week of March 28 and ends the week of November 4, 2022. Residents do not have to call in and are not charged for the brush and yard waste collection during this period. Residents with questions about the program may contact GFL Environmental's Customer Service at their toll-free number (262) 679-0860.

Guidelines for Yard Waste Pick Up:

Residents can place no more than three cubic yards of Yard Waste at the curb for pick-up. The Yard Waste collection program is not a tree removal service.
All Yard Waste must be placed in sturdy paper bags suitable for containing Yard Waste or in other suitable containers clearly marked "YARD WASTE," excluding carts or plastic bags. The weight of each container must not exceed fifty pounds. If Yard Waste is not placed in a suitable container, the branches must be tied in a bundle weighing not more than 50 pounds.
NO GRASS CLIPPINGS will be collected. Residents are encouraged to use mulching mowers or compost their own grass clippings.
YARD WASTE MIXED WITH TRASH WILL BE REJECTED.
The following materials WILL NOT be collected: stumps; root systems or parts of roots attached to brush; brush mixed with garden debris; brush generated from site clearing activities; materials resulting from tree pruning or removal at an address other than the collection point; and tree branches greater than four inches in diameter and four feet in length.
Yard Waste must be placed at the edge of the road, curb or alley (the same location as garbage pick-up) abutting your property only, not extending onto pavement.

Glendale Ordinance 5-2-7 (g) prohibits the burning of leaves, brush, wood, yard waste, and other vegetative debris.

Open fires can be a significant source of pollution. According to the Wall Street Journal, a single pit can, in one evening, emit as much fine-particulate pollution as "one heavy-duty diesel truck driving 564 miles." Bring your leaves to the edge of the street for collection.

If you experience a basement sanitary sewer backup on weekdays between 8:00AM to 4:30PM, call (414) 228-1710. If you experience backup after hours or on weekends, please call the Glendale Police Department non-emergency number at (414) 228-1753. The Police Department will contact a Public Works employee to investigate the problem.
