Tybee City government, residents, and business people are cooperative partners in a mutual goal - to provide complete and efficient sanitation services to the community so that the Island's native beauty is preserved, the natural environment is protected, and the Island's ecological heritage is perpetuated for future generations, while providing for the needs of our citizens and of the visiting public who come to enjoy our Island beaches.
Tybee's barrier island environment prevents use of a landfill. However, there is a collection dumpster at Public Works, and recycling and trash pickup is provided for residents according to the schedules below via a contract with Waste Management.

Yard trash:
- Leaves, yard clippings, paper, straw, and loose yard care items shall be placed in water tight bags or other suitable containers which, when full do not exceed thirty-five (35) pounds in weight. If paper recycling bags are used, please keep them dry until pickup!
- Palm fronds should be stacked and placed adjacent to the roll cart so that they may be collected.
- Heavy brush and tree branches no longer than four (4) feet in length and six (6) inches in diameter and consisting of a pile no larger than four (4) feet by four (4) feet by four (4) feet.
- Special collection may be requested for those residents that have a pile larger than the above, by setting up a private contract with Waste Management.

Tybee Island Public Works on Polk Street maintains a collection dumpster for dry trash.
