Yard Waste Cart Application for Service

 Step 1 of 1

Yard waste cart service is available to City of Davenport solid waste customers. Subscribers to the service are provided a 95-gallon yard waste cart which can be used to dispose of grass, leaves, and other yard wastes instead of paper bags and stickers. Curbside collection remains weekly on your regular collection day. However, instead of purchasing paper bags and stickers to place yard waste for collection, you just roll the cart out to your regular collection point.

There is a one-time $25.00 start-up fee to subscribe to the service and an annual cart rental fee of $16.77. In addition, a disposal fee of $4.80 applies each time you set the cart out for collection. The fee is equivalent to purchasing three yard waste stickers and is not charged during free yard waste weeks.

Many customers may find this alternative very cost-effective when considering the cost of paper bags vs. the annual cart rental fee. Additionally, the yard waste cart eliminates the need to store paper bags in a dry area until your collection day. Brush may still be bundled and placed for collection free of charge outside of the cart, or you may choose to place brush in the yard waste cart.

If you have more yard waste than the cart will hold, you may use a paper bag(s) and yard waste sticker(s) to place additional wastes, or you may consider subscribing to an additional yard waste cart(s). Additional cart subscriptions are subject to the same fees associated with each cart subscription. Customers may also request an extra pickup for $14 plus the normal disposal fee.

To subscribe for yard waste cart service, complete the form below and submit it along with the $25 start-up fee at checkout. The yard waste cart requested will be delivered to the property identified on the Thursday following the City’s receipt of the completed request form. Requests received after 1:00 PM on the day before our Thursday delivery day will be completed the following week.
