Trudy - I have not seen a box used to hold yard compost for pickup. I can tell you that they seem to be very picky, even specifically noting the dimensions of the paper bag they want people to use. These can be picked up at Publix, Winn Dixie, or the 2 home improvement stores on 441. Most of our stuff is tree debris so we break it into manageably sized pieces and just stack it at the end of our driveway. Do you know the pickup day for yard trash in your village? It is a separate day of its own - not on the days that rubbish or household recyclables are picked up.

Here is a website you can use to get more information about pickups depending upon where you live: Sanitation Information
