DSWA adds new feature to Yard Waste Collection Program The Delaware Solid Waste Authority (DSWA) is pleased to introduce a new feature to complement the current yard waste collection service. Starting in November, DSWA will begin distributing 96-gallon wheeled carts to its current yard waste collection subscribers. Similar to the current yard waste program, customers will still need to purchase the $1.00 yard waste stickers in lots of 10, but yard waste will now be placed loose in the wheeled carts. Each cart will have a transparent bag attached to it, when customers are ready for their cart to be picked up they will need to place 3 stickers in the bag. Stickers can be purchased through DSWA’s website (www.dswa.com) or by calling the Citizens’ Response Line at 1-800-404-7080. If customers find that the one cart does not provide enough space for all their yard waste, a second 96-gallon cart can be requested. Customer’s schedules will not change and DSWA will continue to provide weekly pick-up between April 1 and December 31 and every other week pick up between January 1 and March 31. Anyone interested in becoming part of DSWA’s yard waste collection service or current customers with questions about the program change are encouraged to call the Citizens’ Response Line at 1-800-404-7080. more»
