Yard Waste Pick Up Program

Landscape Waste Collection Program

The Village's landscape waste collection program allows residents to place paper yard waste bags filled with dry landscape waste at the curb for pick up on the second and fourth Mondays of the month.

No bill will be sent for the service.  It is free of charge for Village residents.  This program does not include Heritage Lake. 

Dry landscape waste includes:  grass clippings, leaves, branches, shrubs, vines, trees, and other similar items generated by the maintenance of lawns and gardens.

No plastic bags, boxes, or garbage will be picked up.

Wet/torn bags or bags containing anything other than dry landscape waste will not be picked up.

 

Collection Days and Times

Your dry landscape waste bags must be placed out at the curb by 6:00 a.m. on the day it is to be collected.  Pick-up will occur on the second and fourth Mondays of each month.

Holiday collection schedule - In the event that your normal collection day falls on a major holiday (Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day etc.), your collection will be delayed by one day, following that holiday.

The curbside landscape waste collection runs from March to November of each year.  

Containers and Preparation

Landscape Waste Container & Preparation - Mackinaw landscape waste bags must be 30-gallon, double sided, paper bags, specially designed to hold landscape waste.  The landscape waste bags are sold at Village Hall, Mackinaw IGA and other retail stores.   Large limbs that cannot be broken down and placed in bags must be laid parallel to the curb for collection.
