The City of Moose Jaw will be holding a Free Yard Waste Weekend at the city landfill from May 21 to 23. 

During the Victoria Day long weekend, the city is waiving its $10 tipping fee for all organic waste including leaves, grass clippings and branches larger than one inch in diameter. 

The city is asking residents to have the materials in clear or orange bags for easy inspection. 

Organic yard waste can be transported in trailers behind light vehicles. Dual-axle and commercial trucks are not eligible for the fee waiver. 

Non-organic household waste such as furniture, mattresses and appliances will still be subject to regular landfill fees based on material and weight. 

Residents are reminded that, according to city bylaw, tarps are required to secure loads to the landfill to keep roads and streets clear of debris. 

The landfill is open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday to Saturday, including all statutory holidays except Christmas and New Year’s Day, and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday.
