Brush and Leaf Pick Up

Brush collection in the Village will begin in the spring and continue until winter.  We encourage residents to keep their property picked up and offer the service of picking up yard waste (no grass clippings) and brush.  Debris will be collected during the spring and fall as our schedule allows.  Please do not put out 7 days prior to collection during the summer months. 

Please follow these guidelines:
  • Do not mix garbage with brush or leaves.
  • Keep brush and leaf piles separate.
  • Grass clippings will not be collected.
  • Contractors and property owners removing trees will be responsible for the disposal of the material.
  • Do not cover a fire hydrant.
  • Place unbagged leaves curbside.

Please call 773-5093 if you have any questions.
