Proof of Dearborn residency is required and residents must unload their vehicles themselves. Pickup trucks are welcome, but not trailers.

The DPW yard cannot accept bulk items from businesses, apartments or commercial operations, or hazardous materials.

The DPW yard is located at 2951 Greenfield in Dearborn. Additional flood resources can be found on the city’s website.
