Summary
Leander, Texas has no weekly curbside yard-waste pickup: brush and yard waste are accepted only at the city's twice-yearly citizen cleanup drop-off site, run jointly with its contracted hauler.
(f)Annual cleanup. For no charge the contractor will, twice a year, provide six (6) roll-off containers to be dumped three (3) times each. At a location designated by the city, the contractor and the city will set up a manned and supervised citizen drop-off site that accepts refuse, construction material, bulk items (white goods), and brush and other yard waste. Also, as part of this cleanup effort, water-based or latex paints will be included. Batteries and used oil that will be accepted at the landfill the contractor uses will be collected. Material not accepted at the landfill will not be accepted at the cleanup site. This service is for verified city residents only, and only for the cleanup day.
Full Breakdown
Under the city's fee schedule, the contracted hauler and the city jointly set up a supervised drop-off site twice a year where verified city residents can bring refuse, construction material, bulk items, and brush and other yard waste at no charge, using six roll-off containers dumped three times each event. Water-based or latex paints, batteries, and used oil accepted at the contractor's landfill are also taken; material the landfill won't accept is turned away at the drop-off too.
Violations & Fines
There's no routine curbside yard-waste pickup to violate; piling brush or cuttings on a lot between cleanup events can still be cited as a sanitary nuisance, with fines running up to $2,000 for a health-and-sanitation offense under the Code's general penalty rule.
