Leaves must be emptied from bags at the four disposal sites. Free disposal is for leaves only. Regular disposal prices apply to other yard debris and mixed loads.
Other disposal options include applying leaves as winter mulch or using yard debris collection carts available from Waste Connections of Washington.
Clark County reminds residents not to blow, rake or sweep leaves onto streets, where they can block storm drains, cause flooding and create driving hazards.
To help prevent flooding, residents can clear clogged storm drains by standing in a safe place and using a rake or other garden tool to pull leaves from the path of flowing water. However, residents should not try to clear storm drains on busy streets.
Call Clark County Public Works at (360) 397-2446 to report clogged storm drains or flooding outside of city limits.
