Yard Waste & Brush

The Village offers several methods of disposing of yard waste and brush.

  1. Drop-off Site
  2. Curbside Pickup
  3. Brush Chipping Curbside Pickup

The drop-off site is now open for the 2023 season.

The yard waste and brush drop-off site is located at the Public Works Facility on Terminal Drive and accepts yard waste and brush from McFarland residents. The drop-off site is open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and is closed during the winter. Please stack materials as close to the back wall as possible to conserve space.

A reminder that absolutely no holiday wreaths are to be dropped at the drop-off site due to the industrial-strength wire.

Free Mulch!

From time to time, we have free mulch available for any resident can use for gardening and clean-up. The free mulch largely comes from village tree-cutting and mulching efforts, which typically take place in the spring and fall months. Call the Public Works Department in advance to see if any mulch is available.
