Yard Debris

S outhern Oregon Sanitation provides yard debris collection for the benefit of our customers and to support the recycling process. Collecting yard debris reduces the amount of organic material that ends up in landfills and aids in the recovery and reuse of natural resources. The organic materials collected at the curbside can be transformed into excellent compost and bedding materials for gardens and landscaping projects.

Each customer receives a 95 Gallon cart and service is available on a biweekly basis only and is scheduled on the same day as your trash service.

This optional service requires a one year commitment and the subscription costs will be added to your regular statement.
