TranslateDrop-Off Site - Rates and Fees
How Cost Is Determined:
Cost is determined by two factors: the amount of material (see "Amount of Material" chart below) and the type or class of material (see "Type or Class of Material" chart below). Both of these factors are used to determine your cost (see "Calculating Your Rate" chart below).
Amount of Material

Type or Class of Material
| Class I | Dry, loosely piled grass, leaves, brush, twigs, and small branches (under 2" diameter), or any combination of the above. (Hint: Dry twigs will "snap" when bent.) |
| Class II | Loosely piled grass, leaves, brush, and medium branches (under 4" diameter), or any combination of the above. |
| Class III | Wet or densely stacked grass, leaves, and branches, or any combination of the above. |
Calculating Your Rate:
Use the charts above to determine your class and material type, then just refer to the below chart to determine your cost. You can also download our flyer about rates and fees (PDF) or contact Utility Billing at 360.753.8340.
