How leaf removal works in Mint Hill

The Town of Mint Hill collects yard waste with your curbside pickup once a week through Waste Pro, and its leaf notice tells residents to bag leaves in clear yard waste bags, with up to 10 bags a week included. The town's pages quote different weight limits for bags and containers, 50 pounds on one page and 75 pounds on another, so we plan around the lower figure. Piling leaves at the curb unbagged is on the town's list of things not to do. The town also says its street sweeping trucks are not a leaf removal service and are not built to collect large piles, and that piles in the roadway delay sweeping.

What the curb can and cannot hold

For Mint Hill (weekly with garbage), the job is mostly a packing problem: leaves into approved bags, bags to the curb on the right day, and the rest hauled off with us. The estimate spells out how many bags and how many trips.

Limbs and brush are separated from other waste, no more than 5 feet long and 6 inches across, in no more than one pile about 4 feet high, 4 feet wide and 5 feet long per week. If yard waste exceeds those specifications, the town's page says no service will be provided.

Debris from hired work

The published Mint Hill rules are silent on contractor debris, so we treat haul-off as part of the job and list it in the written quote.

Age, ownership and size of Mint Hill homes

Homes in Mint Hill have a median build year of 1992 in the ACS (2020 to 2024), with 27,556 people counted. Landscapes from the 1980s and 1990s are at an age where overgrown shrubs and tired beds need decisions. Lot size decides the number of visits more than home age does.

Within Mint Hill, the median year built breaks down as 28227 (1988) and 28105 (1996).

How the work goes

Can I burn leaves in Mint Hill?

Open burning of yard waste is prohibited under Mecklenburg County ordinances, as the Matthews and Mint Hill pages note, so we never plan a burn.

Yes, Mint Hill is in our service area, roughly 17.5 miles from Indian Land. Estimates are free, and we are taking requests now.
