Spring Brush Pick-Up Begins April 7th

The Brush Pickup Program provides free curbside pickup and chipping of branches, which is then reused as mulch. This program is provided twice a year, in April and October. Last year, the program produced 1,765 cubic yards of mulch which was made available to Village residents for free to use around shrubs and flower beds. The 2025 spring brush pick-up will begin on April 7th. Please note that it may take more than one day to pick up all of the brush in a designated area. If your brush has not been picked up on the first day, please be patient.

Brush must be placed at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the day of your scheduled collection date to avoid missing your cycle. Visit our website to view the collection schedule.
