Grass Clippings
It is recommended while mowing grass to mulch it back into the lawn or to compost it for lawn and garden use and to avoid blowing the grass into the street. The Village will not collect grass. You can take grass, and other garden debris (no brush), to the Dane County Sanitary Landfill site located in Madison at 7102 U.S. 12.
