Street Sweeping and Yard Waste in Pawtucket Began April 3, 2023
Yard waste collection and street sweeping began on Monday, April 3, 2023! Residents are asked to leave leaf bags on their regular trash pickup day.
YARD WASTE:
- Leaves and yard waste must be placed in brown yard waste bags that are available at all local hardware stores or put in a barrel (33 gallons or less) clearly labeled yard waste in order to be collected.
- Plastic bags are not allowed to be used for leaves or yard waste.
- This program does not cover wood from building materials or scrap wood.
- Leaf bags should remain separate from all other trash and recycling and cannot be mixed in with regular household trash.
STREET SWEEPING:
- Parking will be prohibited on the scheduled street sweeping and recycling collection days.
- Cars parked on the streets prevent the sweeper from reaching the curb, and cars in front of trash and recycling bins contain their collection.
- The leaf and yard waste program runs until December 8th.
