Spring is quickly approaching. The birds are chirping. The flowers are blooming. The people are  preparing their yards for warm weather festivities.

Now is the time to sort out your trash from the past. You can hire someone to haul it all away and decrease your clutter. The City of Douglasville’s Yard Waste Collection Program offers residents within the city limits the opportunity to get rid of their yard waste for free each week. 

Most private waste management companies will also help you. They will allow you to schedule a day for them to pick up additional trash for a small price.

If you do not live within the city limits, the Douglas County Landfill will be more than happy to take your trash for a nominal fee.

According to their webpage, the Code Enforcement Department  recommends “a daily inspection of the property by all responsible parties in the clearing and removing of litter”. 

If you spot a code violation, there is something that you can do. Submit a code violation report and they will investigate. Let’s all work together to Keep Douglasville Beautiful!
