The Town of Beaufort Public Works Department picks up Yard Debris and Bulk Items. Please see the guidelines below. To schedule a Bulk Item pickup, please call Town Hall at (252) 728-2141. No contractor debris will be picked up by the Town.

 

Christmas trees are picked up annually by the Town of Beaufort Public Works Department. Please place your live Christmas trees curbside and separate from Yard Debris by 7 a.m. on Monday mornings during the month of January for pickup. Trees are taken to Atlantic Beach for the recycling program.  

 

How Can You Help?

  • Cover your can. Rainwater not only makes cans heavier, but also helps keep trash-laden water off our streets.
  • Bag household trash. Make sure the garbage in the trash can is in a bag so lighter items don't escape.
  • Keep animals in mind. Critters LOVE trash, and the Town is not responsible for cleaning up after them.
  • Early birds get the worm. Crews start early, so you'll want to have your trash to the curb by 7 a.m. to be sure you don't miss the day's pick-up.
  • Watch your weight. The Town has a 75-pound weight limit. This applies to trash, bulk items, and yard debris.
  • No bags will be accepted with yard debris.
