Spring Yard Waste Collection - Town of Islip

Spring yard waste collection - unlimited leaf and brush.

All leaves, branches and brush must be placed at the curb for collection prior to 6 a.m.  Regular yard waste collection will resume after May 14, 2012.  There will be no yard waste collected with your garbage during this 5-week period (April 9-May 12).

To reduce reliance on plastic bags, leaves may be placed in trash cans or cardboard boxes.  Branches and brush must be tied in bundles.
