Yard waste rules in Atlanta

Atlanta collects up to 20 paper bags of yard trimmings per collection, each under 35 pounds, and plastic bags aren’t accepted. More than 20 bags counts as bulk rubbish and needs one of your 12 yearly appointments.

How it works with the City of Atlanta Office of Solid Waste Services

Atlanta treats appliances, furniture, large piles of branches and big playground equipment as bulk rubbish, collected by appointment. Households get up to 12 bulk collections a year, booked at least one business day ahead online or through ATL311.

For a few bags, city collection works well. For a tree’s worth of branches, a torn-down shed or a full yard cleanup in Atlanta, a crew clears it in one visit instead of waiting for your booked appointment.

Recycling, donation and local tips in Atlanta

The Center for Hard to Recycle Materials (CHaRM) on Hill Street SE takes items such as electronics, paint and other hard-to-recycle materials, by appointment.

Green waste goes to composting facilities where they’re available, and wood, metal and plastic from sheds, fences and playsets are separated for recycling.

How yard waste removal pricing works in Atlanta

Every yard waste removal job in Atlanta is quoted individually, and the price is agreed before anything is loaded. It depends on:

  • Truck space used
  • Weight of the materials
  • Stairs, elevators and carrying distance
  • Mattresses, appliances and electronics
  • Disposal and recycling fees

Compared with 12 appointment-based bulk collections a year through the City of Atlanta Office of Solid Waste Services, a quote from us covers whatever amount you have, with the labor, the driving and the disposal in one figure.
