New Castle County Yard Waste Ban

The New Castle County Yard Waste Ban will take effect on January 24, 2008.

New Castle County Residents will no longer be permitted to have yard waste landfilled with other household garbage. The Cherry Island Landfill WILL accept loads of yard waste for recycling at the normal tipping fee.

Residents may also sign-up for DSWA’s Improved Yard Waste Pay-As-You-Throw (PAYT) collection program. Residents will purchase stickers for a $1 a bag and place yard waste at the curb for pick-up by DSWA.

For more information on the yard waste ban or to sign up for DSWA's yard waste PAYT program, please call the Citizens' Response Line at 1-800-404-7080.
