April 3, 2023 marks the start of the City of Saginaw’s seasonal curbside yard waste collection for 2023. For City of Saginaw residents, the first yard waste collection day is based on their regular service day.
- Monday collection: first date for yard waste collection is Monday, April 3
- Tuesday collection: first date for yard waste collection is Tuesday, April 4
- Wednesday collection: first date for yard waste collection is Wednesday, April 5
- Thursday collection: first date for yard waste collection is Thursday, April 6
- Friday collection: first date for yard waste collection is Friday, April 7 (Please note: trash service is not delayed due to Good Friday holiday)
The City of Saginaw reminds residents that all yard waste materials must be placed in paper yard waste bags or in cans between 20 – 35 gallons in size that have a “Yard Waste” sticker affixed to the front of the can. Each container and its contents should weigh less than 50 pounds. All properly prepared materials should be placed at the curb no later than 7 am on your regular collection day.
As a reminder, one bundle of brush is allowed per week for residents. That one bundle of brush should be set out with the trash, not with the yard waste. Brush is defined as: larger branches (two to six inches around) which should be bundled and placed to the curb as trash. Branches should be cut to three by four feet in length and secured by twine or duct tape.
Yard waste stickers are available in the City Clerk’s Office at City Hall, 1315 S. Washington Avenue, Room 102 and in the Streets Division at the Public Works Building, 1435 S. Washington Avenue.
