Items that are not accepted: Garbage, grass clippings, blackberry vines, start thistle, scotch broom, pine needles, straw, stumps, root balls, railroad ties.

To help you get rid of the material you remove when creating defensible space around your home, several organizations in Jackson and Josephine County are waiving fees for FREE green woody debris drop-off.
