As part of our weekly collection program,
Concord Disposal Services offers weekly pickup of yard waste on the
same day as your regular solid waste (“garbage”) and recycling
collection. Please be sure to put all yard waste in the GREEN yard waste
toter.
To ensure safe and orderly pickup of yard
waste, Concord Disposal Service is not required to pickup overloaded
toters. The toter lid MUST BE CLOSED completely when set out for collection.
Excess Yard Waste:
If you have an excess of yard waste on a particular
week and need an extra pickup, please call Concord Disposal Service
at (925) 682-9113. If you have an excess of yard waste on a weekly basis,
an expanded weekly service is available. Please call the office for details.
