Getting your player ready...
Monday marks the season’s start of Loveland’s yard debris collection service, which allows residents to load their grass clippings, leaves and other yard waste into a provided 90-gallon bin for curbside collection on the same day as their trash.
Started in 1992, the service runs from now until November and costs $7.50 a month. About 38 percent of the city’s 22,000 residential trash customers subscribe, said Mick Mercer, manager for streets and solid waste.
Collection is limited to grass clippings, leaves, garden trimmings and small branches that fit in the cart.
The yard waste is turned into compost by Eaton-based A1 Organics, which sells the material across the Front Range.
