Yard Clipping Collection

By Clara Fishel

From today’s Savannah Morning News . . .

Along with the start of curbside recycling, Savannah also initiated its yard clipping collection last week.

By state law, yard waste cannot be commingled with household waste in a landfill. Separating it allows the city to compost yard waste.

Yard waste is collected on the day after recycling and household garbage collection. It can be placed in a container of up to 32 gallons in volume, stacked in neat bundles of no more than 4 feet in length, 12 inches in diameter, and 40 pounds, or placed in yard bags.

A city survey indicated the bags are available at these locations:

– Publix - Twelve Oaks and Largo Plaza.

– Home Depot - Abercorn Street and Victory Drive.

– Kroger - Abercorn Street, Mall Boulevard and Ogeechee Road.

– Lowes - Abercorn Street.
