Please Keep In MindAnnual brush pickup begins on April 8th and will continue through May 17th. Please note there is only one brush pickup per year. The guidelines are as follows:

  • Please have all brush at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on Monday morning in your zone. We cannot guarantee a specific day that we will pick up brush in any given zone.
  • The longer the brush, the better it is for workers to handle and place into the chipper.
  • Do not make your brush pile higher than three (3) feet or place brush in a pile wider than ten (10) feet. The limit is one (1) pile per house.
  • We will not drive onto private roads, driveways or yards due to liability issues.
Documents

We will NOT pick up the following items:
  • Brush that is obstructed by parked vehicles or other items.
  • Brush that is on trailers or truck beds.
  • Small piles of brush, hedge trimmings, vines, long grasses, yard debris, poison ivy or oak, plants, etc. These items should be put in your garbage container and/or garbage bag and placed out for your weekly trash pickup (brush should be cut to no longer than 6-foot lengths and tied into 40-pound bundles). Each bundle counts towards weekly 6 trash can limit, but can be placed out every week.
  • Yard or tree debris that appears it was raked. If items were raked up, there is a good possibility that stones are included in the pile. This will damage the chipping equipment and produce potentially dangerous projectiles for the crew members.  Please bag all of this type of debris and set it out with your trash.
  • Vines (they become tangled in the chipper).
  • Fence posts or building materials.
  • Rotten or dirty wood.
  • Thorns of any type.
  • Wood cut into firewood lengths (it jams the chipper).
  • Brush with any metal such as wire, nails, etc. attached.
  • Brush that does not have all cut ends facing the road and that are not stacked neatly (do not put out a pile of tangled branches facing all different ways).
  • Contractors’ brush piles – this service is for residents only!
  • Whole trees or tree trimmings, unless they are 4” in diameter or less. Homeowners are responsible for disposing of anything larger; i.e., by contracting with a tree removal service or some other means.
  • Roots and stumps over 50 pounds. Roots and stumps 50 pounds or under will be taken but must be cut off and placed in a separate pile.
  • Garbage bags and trashcans full of debris or branches. If branches are tied into bundles or placed in garbage bags or trashcans, they should be put out for your weekly trash, not left out for brush pickup.
  • Community piles – if it appears that the brush did not come from the residence they are piled in front of, they will not be picked up. For example, your neighbors, friends or relatives cannot bring their tree limbs to your house for pickup.  Please do not start a community pile for all the neighbors to add to – we will not pick these up! No exceptions!
