Yard debris removal prices in Slidell
First item / additional item
Contractor bag$69 / $20
The highest first-item price applies once. Every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Applicable sales tax is shown before payment.
Green waste is collected twice a month as its own pile and counts against the same 8 yard monthly limit as bulky waste. The contractor defines green waste as grass, leaves, flowers, stalks, stems, Christmas trees and tree trimmings produced by a resident rather than by a hired contractor or a commercial tree cutter.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Included in the city's contracted residential collection service inside the 8 yard monthly bulky and green waste limit, with no separate fee published for a green waste pile.
When & how
Green waste is picked up twice monthly, with leaves bagged or containerized in the cart and the rest piled for the grapple truck. A large pile can be scheduled by calling 985-781-3171, and the contractor says removal can take up to two weeks.
Get it ready
Trunks and limbs may not exceed 50 pounds or 12 inches in diameter, and the pile may not exceed 5 feet long, 4 feet wide and 4 feet high. Keep the pile out of ditches, driveways, the roadway, sidewalks and a neighbor's property, and away from hydrants, water meter boxes, power lines and low hanging trees.
Match the pile to your side of the city, not to your garbage day
Bulky and green waste is swept on the north side and the south side of Slidell on alternating weeks, and the crew starts the north sweep in the Breckenridge Subdivision and the south sweep at Carrol Rd and West Hall. Put the pile out on the Sunday night or by 5 a.m. Monday of the week the grapple truck is due on your side, because the crew works that side of the city once and does not come back until the next scheduled week.
Keep the pile clear of obstacles and overhead lines
Leave at least 3 feet between the pile and any mailbox, vehicle, fence, cable box, post or utility box, and keep the material out from under power lines and low hanging trees. Yard waste also stays out of ditches, driveways, the roadway and sidewalks, off a neighbor's property, and away from hydrants and water meter boxes, so the grapple truck can reach the pile from the street.
Bag the household waste, close the lid to within 6 inches of the top, and leave nothing beside the cart, because bagged items and loose items outside the cart are not collected. Put carts out the night before or by 5 a.m., within 3 feet of the curb and clear of vehicles, mailboxes, hydrants, poles and fences, with the handle facing the house and the lid opening facing the street. Round cans and cans with removable lids are not collected, and a recycling cart left at the curb on the garbage day is dumped as garbage.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.

Can I arrange same-day pickup?+
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Checkout shows the available dates for your address. Your booking is for a pickup day, rather than an exact arrival window. We send updates and photos after collection.

Green waste goes out twice a month on the same alternating city sweep as bulky waste, and it counts against the 8 yard monthly limit. Trunks and limbs may not exceed 50 pounds or 12 inches in diameter, leaves have to be bagged or containerized, and the pile may not exceed 5 feet long, 4 feet wide and 4 feet high.Official guidance
Who collects garbage and bulky items in Slidell?+
Coastal Environmental Services collects for the City of Slidell, and the city's own Public Utilities page names it as the city trash company.

The contract number is 985-781-3171.Official guidance
Which week is bulky waste collected on my street?+
Bulky and green waste alternates between the north side and the south side of Slidell, so the pickup week depends on which side of the city your address sits on rather than on your garbage day. The north sweep starts in the Breckenridge Subdivision and the south sweep starts at Carrol Rd and West Hall, and each side is worked once per scheduled week before the truck moves to the other side.Official guidance
How much bulky waste can I put out each month?+
The published limit is 8 yards of bulky or green waste per household per month, and the two streams share that allowance. Anything over 8 feet long, any debris holding wet paint, gasoline or motor oil, tires, tanks, dirt and large chunks of concrete, and anything a hired contractor generated are refused in the same pile.Official guidance
