I was charged regular rate for bringing in bags of leaves into the landfill. I thought Yakima County provided a discounted rate for leaves, branches and grass?

Chances are that you brought in your yard waste in plastic bags. Yakima County runs all yard waste through a chipper and plastic bags would damage the equipment and contaminate the chipped yard waste. To receive the discount, bring in your leaves in the back of a truck covered with a tarp. For a complete list of what we accept in our program, see our Composting/Yard Waste information or download Recycling Yard Waste brochure.
