Brush & Leaf Collection Program
Brush Collection Schedule January 1 - June 30, 2012
Brush
Collection Program Guidelines:
The City of Franklin will be conducting Brush
Collection on a monthly basis starting in January 1. All brush relating
to normal activities such as hedge or tree trimmings will be picked up.
Cut tree limbs so as not to exceed three (3) inches in diameter and six
(6) feet in length. Brush cut by property owners will be collected.
Materials cut by professionals or hired tree trimmers will not be
picked up and should be hauled away by those professionals. Place brush
for collection at the curbside with cut ends facing street. Brush
placed more than ten (10) feet from curb or edge of street will not be
picked up. Limbs, tree trunks or other materials that are not readily
capable of being ground in a commercial size wood chipper will not be
picked up. Brush must be in position before 7:00 am on the day of
pick-up for that sector; due to large amounts of brush the brush crew
will only come by once. Quantities of brush picked up will be limited
to approximately one pick-up truckload per resident per pick-up. NO
EXCEPTIONS!
Leaf Collection Program Regulations:
1. All leaves must be raked to the curb, or edge of street by 7:00 a.m. on the first day of pickup.
2. No trash, grass clippings, or twigs should be raked in with the leaves.
3. Leaves should not obstruct drainage structures or curb & gutter areas.
4.
Loose leaves should be separated from items placed at curbside for
Waste Management (trash pickup). Bagged leaves won’t be picked up by
