There are three options for disposal of woody wastes:

Wood/Brush Drop-Off

Woody materials may be brought to the City Compost facility located at 1420 E 11th St (two blocks east of 11th and Haskell). On Saturdays ONLY mid-April through mid-November 2012 from 10 a.m. through 4 p.m. Charge per truckload is $5. For more details call Forestry at (785) 832-7979.

Smaller woody debris is accepted with Monday morning yard trimmings collection. Monday materials should be in a can, City cart, or compostable paper bag, sticking out no more than 12" above the container opening.  No bundles are collected on Monday.

Woody debris (both large and small) may also be disposed of with your regular trash. To dispose, these items must be bundled securely and placed by your refuse container on your regular household trash collection day.
