The City of Marion is announcing that weekly curbside yard waste collection for the 2023 collection season will begin on Monday, April 10 and run through Friday, December 8, 2023.

The curbside pick-up for yard waste generally occurs on the day following each resident’s regular trash collection day (example: Friday trash pick-up - Monday yard waste pick up).

Branches must be tied in bundles no larger than 2 feet in diameter and 5 feet in length. As in the past, the City will not collect grass clippings as yard waste material at curbside. Please note: yard waste collections that exceed the limitations listed above may result in a special pick-up charge.

Residents are encouraged to drop off grass clippings and yard waste materials, free of charge, to Outdoor Resource Supply (formerly Park Enterprise), which is located at 560 Barks Rd. W. (between S.
