What counts as yard debris

Palms drop fronds all year, and one weekend of trimming can leave a pile bigger than the curbside pickup will take. Send a photo of the pile and we'll load it and haul it off.

Palm fronds, cut branches, shrub trimmings, bagged leaves and grass, and the brush pile that's been growing by the back fence. If you cut it from your own yard and it fits in a trailer, it's yard debris.

Big jobs are different. Taking down a whole tree, grinding stumps or clearing a lot is a tree service's work, and we'd point you there. Root balls and stumps also fall into a different county category from everyday yard waste.

Why we keep it separate

Brevard County sorts yard waste from everything else at the gate. Resolution 25-080 defines yard waste as leaves, grass clippings, palm fronds and small shrub cuttings from lawn and landscape care, and the county prices yard waste brought in by itself differently from yard waste mixed with other trash.

So a pile of fronds rides as its own load, kept apart from the old couch and the boxes. The Central Disposal Facility in Cocoa and the Sarno Road landfill in Melbourne both list yard waste as accepted. The Titusville Transfer Station doesn't take it, and neither does the Sarno transfer station.

Getting a price

Yard debris is priced like any other load: by how much of the trailer it fills. A wide photo of the pile with something for scale, like a trash can or a car, tells us most of what we need. Send it through the quote form with the town.

Bagged leaves are easier to load than loose ones. Long branches are easier to load if they're cut down to a size one person can carry. Neither is required. Both help.

Questions people ask

Do you cut down trees?

No. We haul away what's already been cut. Tree removal and stump grinding are a tree service's job.

Can yard waste go in the same load as other junk?

It can, but the county charges a different rate for yard waste mixed with other trash, so we keep it separate where we can.

Do the palm fronds need to be bagged?

No. Loose fronds and branches are fine. Just tell us roughly how big the pile is, or send a photo.
