Brush and Leaf Pick-up Collections Programs
Brush Collection Program Guidelines:
All brush relating to normal activities such as hedge or tree trimmings will be picked up. Cut tree limbs 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 the street. Brush placed more than ten (10) feet from the curb or edge of street will not be picked up. Limbs, tree trunks, or other materials which 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 a.m. on the first day of pickup 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 (1) pickup load per resident per pickup. NO EXCEPTIONS!
Leaf Collection Program Regulations:
- All leaves must be raked to the curb, or edge of street by 7:00 a.m. on the first day of pickup.
- No trash, grass clippings, or twigs should be raked in with the leaves.
- Leaves should not obstruct drainage structures or curb & gutter areas.
- Loose leaves should be separated from items placed at curbside for Monarch Environmental (trash pickup). Bagged leaf pickup is available to residents from Monarch Environmental as part of the regular solid waste service on a weekly basis, and will be picked up on their regularly scheduled pick-up day.
