Sustainability – Green Waste Collection & Disposal

Oakwood residents have three convenient ways to dispose of green waste without adding it to the weekly household trash.  First, for several decades, and in addition to the fall leaf pick-up, the city has operated a year-round green waste collection program.  The program is heavily used for the disposal of brush, branches and all other types of yard waste.  Residents can place the green waste behind the edge of roadway at their property frontage for pick-up by the city.  Second, residents may order a dumpster from the city.  The city will deliver and pick up the dumpster at no charge when it is used exclusively for green waste.  Third, residents may drop off green waste at the 24/7 recycling drop-off facility.
