In Ridgecrest, we have heavy trash pickup once a month. It switches from month to month between Tree Waste and Junk Waste. Tree Waste is stuff like tree limbs, branches, and stumps. Junk Waste are bigger items, like broken furniture, construction debris and other things, IN ADDITION TO Tree Waste. Note, though that a homeowner can have things like sheetrock etc. in the Junk Waste pile but a home remodeler cannot leave it at the home he is remodeling for the city to carry off.
Junk waste can contain tree waste, but Tree Waste cannot contain Junk Waste.
