Yard Waste Collection Schedule Change for 2025

The City of Neenah is implementing a new yard waste and brush collection schedule in 2025. The changes are being made to address work tasks that have suffered from lack of time for a concerted focus on such areas as asphalt street patching, mastic road repairs, inspecting/repairing catch basins, cleaning catch basins, tree trimming, retention pond maintenance, roundabout landscaping, sealing concrete, jetting storm sewer, and weeding concrete islands. The new schedule will still be based on the area of the city that residents live in but will take place on Mondays of the even months of the year starting in April and then continuing in June, August, and October. Collection guidelines can be found in the Public Works Services Guide on page 8, or on the Public Works webpage under Yard Waste & Brush.
