Proper Disposal of Garlic Mustard

Garlic Mustard is a highly invasive plant that should not be composted. It should be disposed of in regular refuse and sent to the landfill. Small amounts of garlic mustard should be placed in plastic bags and put in your tan refuse cart.

Large amounts of garlic mustard should be placed in plastic bags and brought to the Streets Division's waste drop-off sites at 1501 W. Badger Road or 4602 Sycamore Avenue (Do not bring garlic mustard to the site at 402 South Point Road)
