If you’ve been out and about in Greensboro lately, you’ve probably noticed something many homeowners are struggling with: piles of leaves left at the curb. Even as the city steps up enforcement of yard waste disposal rules, residents are learning just how important proper leaf management is — not just for compliance, but for safety and neighborhood appearance too.
The City of Greensboro’s yard waste program encourages residents to use a city issued 95-gallon bin and any additional yard waste into biodegradable paper bags. During the peak leaf season (November through February), crews will collect up to 15 paper bags or bundles per household each week — but leaves still shouldn’t be left in the street, blocking storm drains or creating hazards for pedestrians and vehicles. Improperly prepared piles can even lead to fines if they remain after warnings.
At The Mulch Yard, we understand that managing a yard full of fallen leaves can feel overwhelming — especially when local rules and collection schedules change from year to year. That’s where we can help:
