Default What to do with small pile of trimming from trees and shrubs
Need to do some clean up of a crepe myrtle and a few bushes that have grown too tall. Does that have to but cut to small lengths and bagged to be picked up by the trash service or can the pieces 2-3 feet be stacked at edge of the yard and be picked up along with the normal bagged trash? Thanks.

I bag mine. It's time consuming but not difficult.

That’s what I do also. I tie it up into a bunch with some twine so it’s easy for the trash guys to pick up.

I use the big doubled up paper yard waste bags from Lowe’s or Home Depot.
