Drop-Off Site - Rates and Fees

How Cost Is Determined:

Cost is determined by two factors: the amount of material (see "Amount of Material" chart below) and the type or class of material (see "Type or Class of Material" chart below).  Both of these factors are used to determine your cost (see "Calculating Your Rate" chart below). 

Amount of Material 
  Small Pickup Truck
  • 2 yards -- mounded load
  • 1 yard -- even with bed
 
 
  Large Pickup Truck
  • 4 yards -- full to top of cab
  • 3 yards -- mounded load
  • 2 yards -- even with bed 
 

Type or Class of Material 
Class 1    

Dry, loosely piled grass, leaves, brush, twigs, and small branches (under 2" diameter), or any combination of the above.  (Hint: Dry twigs will "snap" when bent.)  

Class II 

Loosely piled grass, leaves, brush, and medium branches (under 4" diameter), or any combination of the above. 

Class III 

Wet or densely stacked grass, leaves, and branches, or any combination of the above.  

 

Calculating Your Rate:

 Use the charts above to determine your class and material type, then just refer to the below chart to determine your cost.  You can also download our flyer about rates and fees (PDF) or contact Utility Billing at 360.753.8340.
