What is our best bet for getting rid of a lot of yard waste? When we dug up the lawn for the new patio we dumped a lot of garbage in an unused garden bet. A lot.
It's just not feasible to put it all in lawn waste bags and bagster won't take lawn waste. Any ideas on if there is someone we can call? I'm at a loss.

We rented a yard waste dumpster from our garbage company. It was the size of what you would find at an apartment. The small one was $80 and the larger one was $100. It was a godsend. You cannot put tons of dirt in it because there is a weight limit but we put a lot of stuff in there and was just fine.
We also did this for not yard waste as well. We had a lot of old soaker hoses to tear out and old fencing. It was nice to have somewhere to put it and then haul away.
Does your county allow you to dump yard waste for free? We generally just load up our truck and dump ours. You might want to check into yours. Ours also has a pickup program that costs a small fee.
I am surprised so many can take it to their dump for free. We can take it there but have to pay. They will also bring a container for us and take it away. For a fee.
Our town picks it up if you put it by the curb. It's on a weekly-ish schedule. Same for grass clippings if they are in brown bags or in a reusable trash can that they can upend into the truck.
