Jefferson residents that are looking to get rid of some unneeded yard waste can do so this next week.

The city’s free yard waste pickup will happen April 25th-27th on your normal garbage day. Items that are accepted during that week include grass clippings, dead plants, sticks and branches, and leaves. Yard waste must be in biodegradable bags and marked with a yard waste sticker. As a reminder for residents, yard waste can also be taken to the yard waste dump site near Daubendiek Park anytime of the year.

Contact city hall at 515-386-3111 for more information or to purchase a $1 yard waste sticker.
