According to information made available by the Borough, the next scheduled yard waste pick-up for Ellwood City residents will be the week of May 17, 2021.
The borough’s new contract with Valley Waste starts June 1, 2021 that introduces a bi-weekly yard waste pick up schedule. The full schedule will be provided in the near future.
In addition to garbage removal, the new contract with Valley Waste also adds additional dates for yard waste pickup. Instead of nine yard waste removal days, residents will be able to get rid of yard waste twice a month from April 1 to November 30.
At this week’s Borough Council meeting, Borough Manager David Allen commented that the new contract expands yard waste pickup significantly.
Per the Borough’s website regarding yard waste pickup procedures: Green borough yard waste bins are also available for residents to dispose of their simple yard waste. Yard waste bins can be purchased at the borough utility office or by calling 724-758-5576. If a resident has extra yard waste that does not fit into a container, it is recommended that they bundle and tie branches together. The branch bundles can be no longer than 4 ft. and should be placed next to the container. For all other extra yard waste, residents may place these items in the brown biodegradable bags that may be purchased at most hardware stores. Please do not place the items in plastic bags as the waste dump sites for yard waste materials will not accept these items.
