Saturday, February 23, Republic Services will be at City Hall for a FREE Yard Debris Drop Off Event

Republic Services has announced a recovery plan for a yard waste clean-up event for Lake Forest Park customers. In partnership with the City of Lake Forest Park, temporary drop boxes will be placed at City Hall.

On Saturday, February 23rd Republic staff and containers will be onsite (see above map) from 8:30am to approximately 3:30pm (this is to allow the drivers to get back to the composting facility before it closes).

The service is free, but residents must bring a photo ID to prove residency. Each Republic Services customer will be limited to six, 32 gallon bags (approximately two times the volume for the largest bin offered to residential customers).

Items accepted include most Yard Debris, but is restricted to the following:

• Branches 4 feet in length or less, bundled, no flocking or decorations;
• Residential yard grass and small plants.

*Please note, dirt, rocks painted wood, shredded paper, and all plastics will be not be accepted for this special event.
