Brush and branches include woody stalks from pruning and branches up to 6" in diameter. Brush collection can be requested April - November. Please note: DPW Sanitation does not collect brush from apartment complexes (5 or more units) or businesses.
All other yard debris including grass clippings, weeds, and garden debris must be composted or grass cycled or brought to a Drop Off Center.
Brush that is collected by DPW Sanitation through Drop Off Centers and curbside brush requests is composted.
Forestry prunings are mulched. Call to check on availability of a free mulch pile located at each Drop Off Center.
