Question

What should be done with the s'chach after Sukkot if I do not intend to keep it for the next year?

Answer

 

Shalom Rav,

It is permissible to dispose of the s'chach after Sukkot, but not in a regular trash bin; rather, in a separate place. If this is not possible, one may be lenient and dispose of the s'chach in the trash if it is wrapped in plastic.

[There are places where arrangements have been made for the municipality to collect the s'chach separately, and fortunate is their lot].
