GRAPPLE TRUCK STREET VIEW 

Christmas trees and wreaths will be picked up with your brush pile.  Please ensure that they have been returned to their natural state. We cannot accept any tree's with flocking as they will gum up the chipper machines when they are brought back to the Service Center.  Wreaths will NOT be accepted with wire of any kind on them. 

NOTE!!!  IF THIS IS NOT YOUR WEEK- You may see our trucks in your neighborhood picking up brush piles already.  DO NOT PANIC. We will rerun the route starting Monday at 6AM.  Do not delay in getting your brush out. 

We DO NOT pick up brush from common areas in communities. Your pile must be stacked in front of your property in accordance to our rules.  EVEN IF YOU HAVE BEEN PLACING YOUR PILE IN A COMMON SPACE FOR THE ENTIRE TIME YOU HAVE LIVED AT YOUR LOCATION.

 Please have your brush ready and at the curb by 6am of your assigned week. Once we have run your route, even if we finished it early, we will NOT be back until the following month.

In order to assist the crews with prompt removal and avoid any delays, we ask that you follow all of the Brush Removal Rules and stack your debris in accordance to those rules which can be found here: RULES

If we have a delay in service due to unforeseen circumstances, please note that there are other options of removal that you may want to consider. The following local Convenience Centers WILL take RESIDENTAL BRUSH as well as the Williamson County Landfill.  Or… you can privately contract it out to be removed.

Once we have serviced your street we will not return until the following month. Even when we are delayed, please put your brush out at the curb the Sunday before your ASSIGNED week to ensure pick up.

 

Important- Please read!

The Brush Removal service is running and as always, we do our best to stay on schedule. However, when circumstances beyond our control happen, we ask that you please remain patient as we work our way through the neighborhoods and continue to do pick-ups as safely and efficiently as possible.

The Right Way To Set Out Brush

 

 

  •  Large amounts of brush and large trees removed by commercial landscaping services must be disposed of by the company.   If you hire someone to cut your brush, be sure that the cost of hauling the brush, yard waste and other debris away is included in the price estimate you receive.  The free Chipper Service operated by the City of Brentwood is designated to accommodate routine trimming and pruning done by the homeowner.  Without limitations, the City would be unable to service all homes monthly.
