You have two more weeks before yard waste pickup is suspended for the winter!
Louisville Metro Solid Waste Management will be suspending the collection of yard waste in the Urban Services District (USD) beginning on January 21 through April 1, 2019 (the end date is new, changed since our last eNews). While individuals may request collection as needed during this time through MetroCall at 574-5000, please plan to set out your yard waste – including Christmas trees – BEFORE January 19.

Metro Public Works is providing curbside pickup of Christmas trees within the Urban Services District (the old City of Louisville boundaries) until yard waste pickup is suspended for the winter. Residents with City curbside yard waste pickup may set their Christmas trees and greenery out on their regular collection day. Trees must not be in plastic bags, and all decorations and lights must be removed. With yard waste collection suspended after January 18, don’t delay!
In St. Matthews, trees can be set out by the street on your regularly scheduled trash day.
Residents normally serviced by private waste haulers should check with those companies to see whether and when tree pickup is available.
Drop-off Christmas tree service is also available for all Louisville/Jefferson County residents at 636 Meriwether Avenue through January 31.
DROP OFF LOCATION from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
