Mentor Storm Damage

Effective immediately, the City of Mentor will begin a storm debris collection effort in response to damage caused throughout the City as a result of last night’s snowfall.

Residents are reminded that Mentor’s annual yard waste program is currently underway and yard waste will be collected on your regular trash day.   Collection is limited to 12 units per week at this time. Each unit should weigh less than 35 lbs. Brush should not exceed three inches in diameter and must be cut into four-foot lengths and tied in bundles. Grass clippings, plants, leaves, small twigs, hedge trimmings, etc. can be contained in paper yard waste bags or rigid containers up to 32-gallon capacity with holes drilled on the side near the bottom to allow for water drainage. Leave the lid off and mark the container with YW.

Those residents who have experienced storm damage to their trees may also bring limbs no greater than 6″ curbside to be chipped or removed. There will be no limitation to the length of the limbs and branches do not need to be tied. Residents are asked to not place any debris in the roadway or sidewalk.  Residents with additional storm debris are asked to notify the Mentor Public Works Department at (440) 974-5781 or email pubworks@cityofmentor.com so that these materials can be picked up promptly.

If you have any questions, or require additional assistance, please contact the Mentor Public Works Department.
