Attention Yuma Residents!
With the recent destruction to our trees, you are probably wandering how to manage them so that they grow back successful. Check out Garden The Plains on Facebook for more information on this topic.
Vegetative Debris Pick Up Coming To An End!

Update on Lake Yuma
Trash Service
Our trash service is up and running thanks to a loaner truck from Shaw Disposal. They have graciously offered one of their trucks for us to rent. Trash pick up has already began this afternoon, picking up where we left off earlier this week. Our staff will be working, Saturday, Sunday and Monday if needed to get caught up. We estimate to be back on schedule Tuesday. Thanks so much for your understanding and patience to this matter.
The City of Yuma Closed Monday
The City of Yuma will be closed on Monday, May 27th in observance of Memorial Day.
All trash scheduled for pickup on Monday will be picked up on Tuesday, May 28th.
Temporary Disruption in Trash Collection Services
Dear Yuma Residents,
We regret to inform you that both of our trash trucks are currently experiencing mechanical issues and are temporarily out of service. We understand that this comes at a particularly inconvenient time, especially given the recent storm damage our community has sustained. Please rest assured that we are working tirelessly to resolve this issue as quickly as possible. We have already ordered the necessary parts for repairs and are actively seeking a replacement truck to minimize any disruption to our services.
Damage Assessment Survey
Axon Network is a company law enforcement uses that provides equipment such as body cams. The City of Yuma uses this equipment. Axon Aid is a division staffed by employees that are on a volunteer basis. This division has provided 2 drones free of charge to assess the damage in the City of Yuma this evening and tomorrow morning. The results of this should be interesting and we will share the results as soon as we receive them.
