Dearborn Yard Waste Collection Ends Dec. 14

The City of Dearborn will collect yard waste in proper containers on trash days one last time the week of Dec. 10-14, but then the program for 2012 concludes until next year.

The curbside yard waste collection will resume the week of March 18, 2013.

Residents whose trash day is Monday, Dec. 10 should put out their final yard waste for pickup that day and the pattern will continue all week long,  ending for residents with trash days on Friday, who should put out their yard waste for pickup on Friday, Dec. 14

Note that the city’s Public Service Days program has already ended for the season, meaning trash day parking restrictions are lifted until April 1, 2013.

However, it is still a good idea to keep vehicles off the streets when possible on trash days, to allow for more efficient pickup even during the winter months, said Nick Siroskey, director, Dearborn Residential Services.

    Leave no parking year around and it would be easier on trash days and less confusing. Other cities have it year round. Makes sense…..

    At a Dearborn Federation of Neighborhood Association meeting on January 9, 2012, Mayor O’Reilly stated that the city is seriously looking at the possibility of having Public Service Days year-round. He stated that although the city contractor will keep the current schedule for yard waste pickup, he felt that making it easier on our refuse collectors to pick up trash year round, by keeping cars off the street on trash pickup day might be the way to go. Currently, council is studying this issue.
