Gardening Tips for Your Home!

Doing yard work? 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 (no plastic) 
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 when it appears a contractor has worked.
