Question
What should I do with the S'chach after Sukkot if I don't intend to keep it for next year?
Answer
Hello and blessings
It is permissible to dispose of the S'chach after Sukkot, and it does not require genizah, but not in the trash or in a place where people will step on it, rather in a separate place. If such an option is not available, it is permissible to throw 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 this is commendable].
