Yard Waste Collection
Yard Waste is collected on recycling days between March and December.
Please be aware of the weight of containers because they are manually handled by the collection crew.
Vegetative material can either be placed in two (2) 32-gallon cans, clearly marked YARD WASTE on the side of the cans or three (3) biodegradable paper yard waste bags. There is a Two (2) can or Three (3) bag limit per pick-up. Yard Waste is vegetative materials only.
DO NOT PLACE DIRT, ROCK, CONCRETE, ANIMAL WASTE, TRASH, PLASTIC, OR ANY OTHER NON-VEGETATIVE MATERIALS in yard waste containers. Any of these materials will result in non-collection.
Limbs should be bundled in 4-5 ft. lengths tied securely with baling string or cord. There is a limit of Two (2) bundles per pickup up to 15 larger limbs, with a diameter no larger than 3 inches. These may be placed at the curb with the cut end toward the street.
For large amounts of yard waste, may dispose of it at Earth First on Hwy 403. For more information, please call them directly at (812)248-0712.
In the fall, the Town provides leaf pickup on a weekly basis, beginning around mid- October, leaves must be placed in paper bags and placed at the curb. There is no limit to this service, but we encourage mulching or composting leaves, if at all possible. Please note, open burning in the Town of Sellersburg is NOT permitted.
This service terminates on December 1st
