GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — On Monday, curbside yard waste collection service will resume for the season in Grand Rapids.

You can use a yard waste cart with a yellow tag, or get city paper bags or purple bulk waste tags from the city. The city has a list of places where you can get the bags and tags on its website.

Yard waste includes things like grass clippings, brush, plants and smaller tree limbs and logs. You should not put dirt, stones, trees or stumps, or roadkill in your yard waste bag.

You can also take your yard waste year-round—either loose or in a paper bag—to the city’s refuse drop-off site at 2001 Butterworth Street SW between O’Brien Road and Maynard Avenue. To use the site, you must prove Grand Rapids residency.

More information can be found online or call the Department of Public Works at 616.456.3000.
