The City of Kearney, Sanitation Division, announces that the residential yard waste collection service will resume as follows:
Wednesday, April 5 for residents who live south of the Union Pacific Railroad lines, and within East Lawn and Valley View
Mobil Home Park Thursday, April 6 for residents who live north of the Union Pacific Railroad lines
Yard waste containers are emptied once a week for a fee of $15.00 per month, per container.
There is no need to call to reinstate service if you currently have a yard waste container.
If you would like to start yard waste service, please call (308)233-3206.
Yard waste containers must be placed at the curb, with the container opening toward the street,
by 7:00 a.m. on each respective collection day. All yard waste must be placed in the container so the lid can fully close.
Yard waste includes grass clippings, leaves, flowers, garden material and tree trimmings less than one inch in diameter.
The yard waste is taken to the Kearney Area Solid Waste Agency Landfill where it is composted and made available to the public.
Please do not place trash or plastic bags in the yard waste containers.
Please consider mulching grass clippings back into the turf rather than obtaining a yard waste container.
