St. Johns County offers free disposal of yard waste at Republic Services facility

Posted

Due to the national workforce shortage, residents in northern St. Johns County have been experiencing delays in their yard waste collection. In an effort to provide additional options to the community, St. Johns County is allowing residents to bring yard waste to the Republic Services facility, 445A International Golf Parkway, free of charge.

The service will be offered immediately to residents and will continue until Republic Services can return to its regular schedule.

At this time, there should be no impacts to household garbage or recycling collection services.

This drop-off service is for St. Johns County residential customers only. No commercial trucks or vehicles will be allowed.

The drop-off hours are from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Residents must unload their own waste. No staff assistance will be available for unloading.

The St. Johns County Solid Waste Division is working alongside Republic Services to resume timely curbside service.
