City crews will collect brush on each street one time only during its scheduled collection week. Here are a few tips from the city on how to prep your limbs:

  • Branches should not be cut into short pieces.
  • Do not put any wire, metal, trash, garden waste or other debris in the brush that is to be chipped. This could cause serious injury to the crew and damage the chipper.

No stumps or limbs larger than 6" in diameter will be taken.
