Borough’s Brush Pickup Schedule and Guidelines
Here’s a friendly reminder for all borough residents: The Borough’s brush pickup has already commenced and will continue each week through Tuesday, May 21, 2024. This is a great initiative by the Borough workers to help keep our community clean and green!
What can be picked up?
The Borough workers will pick up and haul away compostable waste such as: dead leaves, dead plant material, tree and brush trimmings and branches up to 3” in diameter and 6’ in length. Remember, brush and branches must be bundled with string or twine. Please refrain from using wire to bundle.
However, there are certain items that will not be picked up. These include:
- Stone
- Garbage
- Gravel
- Dirt
- Junk
- Appliances
When and where will the pickup take place?
Borough crews will pick up all brush and bags on the East side of Penn Street every Monday and items will be picked up on the West side of Penn Street every Tuesday. Be sure to mark your calendars for the last day for Spring Pickup!
If your items were not set out in time or they were missed, don’t worry! They will be picked up the FOLLOWING WEEK. Just make sure the items are placed curbside by 7:00 am. Note that the only alley pickups will be at Sweet Cherry Court in Holliday Hills.
What about the rest of the summer?
For the rest of the summer, the pickups will take place on the Mondays and Tuesdays of the 2nd & 4th full week of each month.
This information is based on a post published on April 10, 2024 on the Borough’s official Facebook page. To get more in-depth information, you can visit the original post here.
