Benefits of Yard Waste Carts
The benefits of using carts for yard waste collection include:
- More efficient collection
- Safer roadways
- Cleaner roadways for healthier habitats for wildlife. Cart collection keeps debris out of storm drains that empty into local creeks, streams, and waterways.
- Prevents flooding that can occur when yard waste clogs stormwater drains.
- Less pollen and dust in the spring. The fine particles can't be contained in vacuum trucks.
