Residents of Leavenworth should note that Saturday, November 23, 2024, is the last day to drop off yard waste at the Recycling Center for the current season. With winter hours now in effect, the Recycling Center will be open to residents on Saturdays from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM and Wednesdays from 3:30 PM to 5:30 PM. This announcement is critical for those looking to manage their yard waste responsibly before winter, especially as yard waste collection will not resume until spring.

Community members are encouraged to utilize this opportunity to keep their yards clean and free of debris during the colder months.

Proper disposal of yard waste not only aids in maintaining community aesthetics but also contributes to environmental health.
