Tan Yard Waste Cart
*Note - Our trucks can pick up yard waste rolling carts weighing up to 150 pounds. Carts filled to capacity with some materials can exceed this weight limit and may not be collected.

Yard waste is now collected with a fully automated truck, using a mechanical arm that retrieves, empties and sets the cart down in the street without the driver leaving the truck.

Using the fully automated system makes the set out of the carts more important than ever, so that the mechanical arm can grab a cart without interfering with the other carts.
