Brush Chipping Service : The Need-to-Know

There Are 3 Options for Handling Residential Brush:

? Take brush to the Transfer Station on Foltz Parkway

(Drive located on east side of the railroad tracks).

? Bundle branches in 4 ft. lengths (no more than 35 lbs/bundle)

Leave out for Republic Waste on a normal trash day.

? Call the City Service Department after the branches are out on the curb for pick-up request.

Please allow up to a week for service. If demand is great, a delay in service may occur.

Guidelines for Service Department Pick-Up

*Normal Residential Brush Only, no land clearing.

(If you hire a contractor, the contractor is responsible for the removal of the brush. If these guidelines are not followed, the City has the right to refuse pick-up.)

? City will only pick up at curb (do not obstruct sidewalk or street) ? Place all cut ends in one direction ? Keep stack pile as neat as possible (branches only, no steel or metal debris) ? Branches up to 6 inches in diameter ? Branches must be longer than 4 ft. in length

Brush Chipping Service is ONLY available from March to September.
