YARD WASTE SERVICES

Bag-n-Tag (City of McPherson, only) - Yard waste may be placed in trash bags and tagged with MASWU yard waste tags which you may purchase at a variety of businesses throughout McPherson. Bags are picked up on Mondays for those individuals who have called in by 5:00PM the preceding Friday and placed their address on the pickup list.
Yard Waste/Compost - There is a yard waste drop off site at the MASWU transfer station. We compost the yard waste and give it to any resident of McPherson County at no charge. Monday through Friday you may load it yourself or pay a small load fee to be loaded for you. On Saturdays we load it at no charge.
RECYCLING SERVICES
Commercial Cardboard Recycling - This service is of great benefit in two ways. It is friendly to our environment, but also reduces the cost of trash service for those customers who participate in the recycling of cardboard. The customer pays for the monthly rent of a recycling container and MASWU picks up the cardboard at no additional cost. We then sell the cardboard to an industrial recycling company. Everybody wins!
Recycling Center - There is a recycling center located at the MASWU Transfer Station. Most of the cities have a drop off site for recycling products. Please go to our recycling page for more information.
