Brush Pickup Guidelines:

This does not include trees in wooded areas behind homes. We DO NOT or extend lots for builders or private owners. If you utilize the services of a contractor, he is responsible for clean up of the trimmings.

  • ALL branches MUST be no larger than 3” in diameter.
  • ALL branches MUST be piled as neatly as possible with ALL CUT  ENDS FACING THE ROAD, piled as close to the road as safety permits, approximately waist high. This enables crews to pick them up quicker and easier.
  • BRANCHES MUST BE FREE OF ROOTS AND DIRT.  We do not pick up rocks, stumps, leaves, lawn sweepings, twigs, vines, rubbish, etc. Please do not put these items out with your branches. We will not pick them up as they could pose a great danger to the men and equipment. 
  • We do not go on private property. Please do not request us to do so

Should you have any questions, please contact the Highway Department at 791-3831 from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday through Thursday
