City of Ellisville Launches New Optional/Subscription Yard Waste Program for 2025
Starting January 1, 2025, the City of Ellisville is introducing an Optional/Subscription Yard Waste Program to replace the current yard waste sticker system. This streamlined approach offers residents convenience and flexibility for managing their yard waste while ensuring environmentally responsible practices.
Program Details
Under the new program, yard waste collection will continue to take place on Wednesdays, providing a reliable weekly service throughout the year. Residents enrolled in the program can dispose of up to eight containers of yard waste per week, which must be prepared and placed curbside by 6:30 AM on collection day.
Accepted containers include:
Biodegradable paper bags
Personal containers (up to 35 gallons, clearly marked with an “X”)
Bundles of branches/twigs (up to four feet long and no more than two feet in diameter, tied securely with twine or rope)
Leased yard waste carts from Republic Services
To ensure safety and ease of handling, containers must not exceed 50 pounds in weight.
How to Enroll
