Is fruit considered Leaf & Yard Waste?
ID – LYW38 Fruit from trees such as apples, peaches, pears, cherries, plums, (etc.) is considered acceptable Leaf & Yard Waste. As fruit tends to decompose more quickly than leaves or grass, it is best if it is placed in rigid containers instead of paper yard waste bags. Remember: a container full of fruit will easily weigh 23kg (50lb) so keep an eye on the weight. Alternatively, fruit can also be placed in your green cart.
