Yard waste will be accepted at the Recycling Center from April through mid-November. Delta residents must show two pieces of ID, such as a driver’s license and a Delta Township Voter ID card, property tax notice or water and sewer bill. There is a charge for this service that depends on the amount of yard waste to be disposed of. 

Please note that yard waste is not accepted in plastic bags. Lawn and leaf bags are available for purchase at many retailers, the Township Clerk's office, and at the recycling center.  For more information, please contact the Clerk’s Office.
 
 

De-Leafing Program

This annual program gives the opportunity to recycle their yard waste free of charge! De-leafing is generally held in the months of October and November. Delta residents must show two pieces of identification such as a driver's license, voter ID card, property tax notice, or water/sewer bill.

De-Junking Program

Like de-leafing, this program gives residents an annual opportunity to rid themselves of many items. The Salvation Army and/or Volunteers of America will be on site to take any reusable items. Dates are generally scheduled within the month of May, and though disposal is free, a voucher is required prior to visiting the Recycling Center. Vouchers are issued by the Clerk's Office, and will require two pieces of identification such as a driver's license, voter ID card, property tax notice or water/sewer bill.

For more information on either programs, or for any other questions pertaining to recycling, please contact the Clerk's Office at 517.323.8500.
