New York rules and programs

  • Yard waste landfill ban

    Partly

    New York bars landfills and incinerators from disposing of yard waste and other organics that were separated for recycling. Whether you must separate leaves depends on your town, since local laws set what must be recycled.

  • Secured load law

    Yes

    Open trucks and trailers hauling loose material must be covered unless nothing can fall or blow out. Loads that can shift or roll must be chained or strapped; violating that is a misdemeanor with fines up to $750 and up to 30 days in jail.

    The cover rule is VTL § 380-a. The shifting-load rule is VTL § 377, with fines of up to $100 for a first offense, $350 for a second and $750 after that.
