Change to Residential Bulk Yard Waste Collection Process

In 2021, with the new waste service contract, there was a change to the process of collecting bulk yard waste inside the City limits of Cocoa. Previously, residents called Waste Management to request this service. The new contract requires residential yard waste customers to contact the City of Cocoa Public Works to make this request. City staff will then route this request through Waste Management to schedule a yard waste pick-up. For bulk yard waste pick-up, call the City of Cocoa Public Works Department at (321) 433-8770 or e-mail yardwaste@cocoafl.org

Bulk yard waste is the yard waste that will not fit inside your Waste Management provided yard waste container and which is over 3 cubic yards (or about the size of a picnic table). Yard waste should not be mixed with fences or bagged or it will not be collected. Please read our Waste Collection FAQs if you have any unanswered questions.

Small, loose yard waste can be placed inside your yard waste container and put out on your curb on your regularly scheduled yard waste pick-up date. If your yard waste does not fit inside your provided yard waste container and is over 3 cubic yards or approximately the size of a picnic table, residents MUST contact the City of Cocoa Public Works to request pick-up by calling (321) 433-8770 or sending an email to yardwaste@cocoafl.org. City staff will then route this request through Waste Management to schedule a yard waste pick-up within 10 business days from the day the request was received. Yard waste should not be mixed with fences or bagged.
