**Important Yard Debris Collection Notice**

Dear Valued Customer: American Disposal Services (ADS) takes pride in providing you refuse and recycling removal services. We value each and every one of our customers and thank you for your support and business. Recently, there have been changes implemented by processing facilities that could impact your services.

Yard Debris Collection: Processing facilities are beginning to phase out the use of plastic bags for yard waste collection. Many residents have already made the change from plastic bags to compostable paper bags or rigid plastic containers. ADS will no longer collect yard debris in plastic bags.

**Yard debris collection reminder**:
Residents must use compostable paper bags for grass clippings and leaves. Personal cans may be used; however, they need to be marked “yard debris”. Tree limbs and brush must be no longer than 4 feet in length and 3 inches thick in diameter. These items must be tied with rope or twine in arm length bundles. We will collect a maximum of 10 bags of grass clippings and/or leaves, and 10 bundles of brush per pick up. There will be an extra charge if you would like to schedule additional removal of these items.

Please call in advance for pricing and to schedule. Items that are bagged and bundled are not to exceed 50 lbs. Concrete, rocks, mulch, sod, and dirt are not accepted. These compostable paper bags can be purchased online or found at the grocery store and warehouse stores such as Home Depot, Lowes, or any garden centers.

**Please have your items curbside the night before to ensure collection.

If you have any questions, please call our Customer Service Department at 703.368.0500 Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM.

Sincerely, American Disposal Services
