Yard Notes & Tips
 
As you prepare your yards this Spring, please keep these guidelines in mind:
  
RIGHTS-OF-WAY: No plants, fences, structures  or obstructions are allowed in the right-of-way. 
 
NO PLASTIC BAGS: Charleston County accepts
clippings in paper bags but will no longer collect items in plastic bags. 
CUT limb sizes down: 4 feet or less
PACE YOURSELF: Town Contractor, Suburban Disposal, can only pick up small piles of yard debris from each home each week.  Put out small piles each week to ensure it all gets picked up.  
CURB IT: Yard debris is placed at the end of your curb on Tuesday evening for pick-up on Wednesdays.
CONTRACTORS: Carry it away
If you hire a landscape contractor, the contractor must haul away the debris.  
NOTE: Suburban Disposal does not pick up yard debris on vacant lots or on lots where it appears a contractor has worked.
