Brush Pickup

Curbside brush collection happens monthly from May through October. Your collection day depends on what area of the city you live in. You can find your collection day for brush collection by searching for your address here or on the map below.

Accepted: 

• Branches, twigs, and trimmings up to four feet in length and two inches in diameter
• Weeds
• Brush must be bundled with twine or rope (no metal, please) or in open cardboard boxes or biodegradable bags
• Bundles should be less than 50 pounds and not wider than arm's length

• More than 7.5 cubic yards of material per collection

You can place prepared material at the curb starting at 7 a.m. the day before your scheduled pickup. Make sure your items are out no later than 6 a.m. on your collection day.

If your items are not collected for any reason, they must be removed from the curb within two days following the completed pickup in your area. If your collection was missed, make sure you report it promptly and no later than 48 hours after your scheduled pickup. 

These times are set by city ordinance so make sure you follow them- items placed at the curb too early or left out too late are considered a nuisance and may result in enforcement action without notice. 

Please report missed collections within 48 hours. You can report a missed collection online or by calling 311 or (269) 337-8000.
