Brush
and Leaf Pick-up Collections Programs
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!
