VILLAGE OF MORTON RESIDENTS ONLY: A free special yard waste drop-off site will be available at Sewage Treatment Plant #2, 2625 S. Fourth (at the corner of S. Fourth and Broadway Rd.). Verification of name & address required.
The program is “self-serve” as it has been in the past. A fenced area at STP#2 will be designated for yard waste disposal. Assistance will not be provided for removal or dumping of tree branches.
The following regulations and limitations must be met:
- Tree branches ONLY
- No leaves, grass clippings, shrubs, root masses, or any associated landscape waste will be accepted other than tree branches.
- No commercial enterprise may deposit landscape waste at this site.
- No paper or plastic bags will be allowed for disposal.
- Video surveillance will take place during the program.
Please follow or help us police these rules to ensure the continued operation of the yard waste disposal program for all citizens of Morton. Remember that it is a violation of Village ordinances to deposit landscape and yard waste on Village property (in the streets, in Prairie and Bull Run Creeks, down storm sewers, etc.), and that open burning of landscape waste or any kind of garbage is prohibited within the Village limits.
