Brush Dump
The brush dump is no longer open to the public.
Leaf and Limb Service
Leaf and Limb piles must be in separate piles. The city will pick up tree limbs, hedge clippings, leaves, and other brush and rubbish of this nature when placed in disposable containers or in neat and orderly piles, and placed adjacent to the alley, or on the edge of the alley, in order that it may be removed conveniently. Those not having alleys must place the debris curbside, near the location of garbage pickup. Tree limbs and hedge clippings shall not exceed five (5) feet in length and shall be placed in neat piles. No single tree limb, trunk, stump or cutting shall exceed seventy-five (75) pounds each. There will be no additional charge for pickups of this nature. However, if brush, rubbish, tree limbs and hedge clippings are not placed for pickup in this matter, the removal of such will become the sole responsibility of the resident.
